Our goal is to create opportunities that improve individual lives, bolster community resilience, and transform poverty into a springboard for economic empowerment and societal advancement. 

Norwescap was founded in 1965 during the presidency of Lyndon Johnson and his administration’s efforts referred to as the “War on Poverty,” further fueled by the advocacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Over the next six decades, Norwescap has grown to build a comprehensive foundation of programs and services that, together, positively impact tens of thousands of people each year.
