Newton Wellesley Weston Committee for Community Living, Inc. (NWW) changes name to Pathway to Possible, holds Annual Autumn Auction

Newton, MA--On Saturday November 9th NWW Committee, a nonprofit organization focused on providing housing, support, and advocacy for people with cognitive and developmental disabilities, held their annual Autumn Auction at the Braeburn Country Club on Saturday, November 9th. Attended by Mayor Fuller and over 200 members of the Newton Community, the event raised over $97,000 for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities. In addition to raising much needed funds, the agency announced an official name change to Pathway to Possible. The new name, new tagline Compassion. Commitment. Community., and strategic rebrand better positions the organization to gain greater financial stability, and benefit their community as they continue to grow.

“I believe this name, Pathway to Possible, captures the very essence of who we are and what we do. It provides a pathway to a world of possibilities for the people we serve.”

• Brenda Noel, Executive Director

The organization was formed over forty-five years ago, with a single goal in mind: to provide support for families and their loved ones with cognitive and developmental disabilities – empowering them to achieve their dreams and live active, fulfilling lives within their communities. Over time, they have grown from a small committee seeking to open a group home to a vibrant agency providing a community with affordable housing and a wide range of support services.

“We are excited to reach more families in our community who are in need of supports and housing for their loved ones with cognitive and developmental disabilities. This new name opens more possibilities, and enables us to develop programming in response to the needs we see in the community around us.”

• Carol Ann Shea, President
