Needham Community Council is such a wonderful organization. I know this first hand. My sister was in need and moved in with me about 11 years ago. She also ended up taking her grandchildren and raising them. She was with me for a while with the children. Community Council gave these kids a Christmas that year. They were so great to her.
Then my mother moved in with me about 2.5 years ago. She was able to get rides to appointments when I could take her by the volunteers. They loaned my mother a wonderful walker. They even had volunteers who would help in shopping if someone needed it.
My son was recovering from a spinal injury and was able to walk but not long distances. I was able to borrow a lightweight wheelchair when he went to various Patriot football games back in the 2005, 2006.
I just can't say enough great things about the Needham Community Council.
