CLEVELAND — A local nonprofit said that it's in immediate need of help with funding. Since the pandemic, the West Side Community House has lost some of its funding, and it has been forced to review some of the areas where services are provided.
The West Side Community House, or WSCH, was established in 1890 as a nonprofit Settlement House near the West Side of Cleveland. It is one of the oldest Settlement Houses in this area. There were over 100 such sites in existence in America by 1900. Early settlement house support came through an independent board of directors or a particular religious or educational affiliation. Today, this nonprofit organization depends mostly on grants and donations, and charitable giving from local people.
WSCH's largest programs serve the senior and disabled population. WSCH maintains a food truck that delivers meals to those who are unable to go to the center due to transportation or medical issues. This nonprofit says its truck needs to be maintained, fuel costs are on the rise, as are driver's wages. This is one of several programs provided to those in need in the West Side Cleveland area.1.
