NBCA is unique because they don't make us jump through hoops, we don't get caught up in red tape, they just do their best to fill in the gaps for some of our most vulnerable community members — and they're usually able to do it pretty quickly. The gas cards, grocery cards, transportation, and financial assistance they provide are all so appreciated. I've had NBCA deliver a much needed shower chair, help with car registration, pay for paratransit rides, help with medical equipment costs — including oxygen — and wheelchairs, and the list goes on.  NBCA’s ability to be flexible, responsive and unrestricted, sets them apart from other non-profits in the community. When I let people know that NBCA will be able to help them, I can see the relief and gratitude they feel through their smiles, a change in posture, and not uncommonly, the tears that flow when they feel their load lightened. They feel the support and care.
