We provide our services on behalf of our donors to all residents in the 14580 ZIP Code area. This includes not only Webster but the northern third of Penfield, as well. Anyone who is in need can contact us.
In 2022, the Webster Community Chest assisted hundreds of families in the 14580 zip code. For most of these situations, we provided advice and guidance to receive needed services from other agencies in the county.
In some cases, there is nowhere else to turn and the needs are immediate. The Webster Community Chest may be able to step in with its own assistance.
Twenty-three families received assistance in 2021.
The Chest has several other programs which aid low-income families.
(For what we have done so far this year in 2022, go to our "Help Us" page.)
We are committed to helping organizations that strengthen our community by providing activities, and services for residents. We like to extend our resources to organizations for projects that may need extra funds. Organizations can write to Webster Community Chest at 1000 Ridge Rd. Webster NY 14580 to request funds. The President may then call the contact person and ask that they attend the next meeting to explain their project.
We provide summer camp scholarships to children in Webster families that qualify. These scholarships are available for a week of camp at the Bay View YMCA or a week of Fun Camp at Webster Parks & Recreation Center. Check back for more information.
Shirley Miller was the Community Chest benefits counselor for almost three decades. During those years, Shirley became the most visible part of the Community Chest working with those who most needed assistance. Each year, the Webster Community Chest awards scholarships in Shirley’s memory to Webster high school seniors who have performed significant community service.
Check with your school guidance counselor for an application. Besides having exemplary volunteer activity in our community, seniors must be residents in the 14580 ZIP code and be in good academic standing.
Deadline: Applications must be received by March 31st.
You may borrow equipment or make donations to the Webster Masonic Service Bureau located at the Damascus Shrine Center, 979 Bay Road. Please call them at 671-9730 for their hours and items available.
