About Greater Newington Charitable Society, Inc.

Greater Newington Charitable Society, Inc. was formed in 2016 to foster volunteerism, and help youth and veterans in Newington, Connecticut and its surrounding towns reach their potential.  Our motto, "Charity. Integrity. Fellowship," underscores the principles upon which this organization was formed and guides its members to make a difference for our youth, our veterans, and our society at large.

GNCS has donated over $50,000 since its inception. Find details here.
100% of monies collected and raised go to support charitable causes. GNCS members donate their own money, resources and talents to maintain and run the organization. Absolutely NO money is used for the betterment or advantage of its members.

​Meetings
Meetings are held monthly on the first Thursday on each month. Everyone is asked to pay $20 for their meal. Any overage goes into the general fund to defray organization expenses.
