The New England Professional Cheerleaders Alumni Association (NEPCAA), a nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization is dedicated to serving their communities through charitable endeavors. NEPCAA was chosen to host the National Football Cheerleaders Alumni Association Charity Reunion Gala taking place in Boston in July 2024.

Students 16+ may volunteer at Gillette Stadium, however, students must be 18+ to work at Boston College. As they are a nonprofit organization, students may work at the concession stands to earn community service credit; and we a letter will be provided indicating their volunteer service.

Friends of the Wayland Council on Aging - Social Networking Expansion
Most towns in Massachusetts have a Council on Aging to provide programs and services to their senior citizens. Councils on Aging receive a portion of their funding directly from Town Government, but like School Districts, Veteran Services, and Conservation Commission, they count on grants and donations from outside organizations to pay for services Town Government cannot cover. The Friends of the Wayland Council on Aging is such an organization.
We are volunteers who provide outside funding to the Wayland Council on Aging for equipment, cultural events, and classes serving the unique needs of Wayland’s senior citizens. The Friends website (https://www.friendsofwaylandcoa.org) describes who we are and recent program and equipment underwriting activities.
We would like to expand our social networking presence beyond our web site. None of us are web-savvy by any means: we seek assistance from creative Wayland High School students who are much more familiar with setting up and maintaining a web presence on multiple social media, including but not limited to Twitter, Instagram, Reddit, and Facebook.
If applying your creativity on behalf of Wayland’s senior citizens sounds good to you, please contact John Shaw at [email protected]
