‘Do Good, Feel Good’
Do
Good, Feel Good is our way
of giving back to the North Shore communities in which we live
and do business. Each month we will highlight a different charity
which will represent a cross-section of needs and awareness. On
the third Sunday of each month, we will hold a class whose proceeds
benefit the chosen organization. We hope that you too, will
find this an exciting way to give back to our community. Please
let us know if there is an organization you would like us to consider,
as we hope to assist charities that you hold dear to your hearts.

FSPE
supports creativity and innovation in our public schools. FSPE
provides funding for projects that further students' educational
experiences in science, mathematics, the arts and humanities.
Such projects go beyond the scope of those funded by the Salem
Public School Department. The Foundation works in partnership
with the business community, local museums, the National Park
Service, Salem State College and the larger community to make
schools a true community enterprise. The Foundation also promotes
and coordinates community volunteerism and participation in
the schools. The Foundation has an interest in funding projects
that help students develop their talents according to their
needs and interests, foster lifelong learning and effective
citizenship, and create an environment in which to pursue and
achieve excellence.

are able to express creativity and a love of learning outside of, but in support
of, normal curriculum activities.
