The Do Good Student Support Group, Inc. is a NJ nonprofit 501 (c) 3 corporation dedicated to giving scholarships to deserving students that are in need of financial assistance, so that they may be able to attend the school of their choice, or at the very least, be able to pay for their books and other expenses that may arise during the school year.
Through donations and memberships we are able to make a difference in students' lives every year!
Established in October of 2000, The Do-Good House began as a social club of about seven members. The members referred to the rented studio apartment as "the Doghouse" and used it to watch ball-games, play cards, and just enjoy each other's company.
As membership grew, the focus of the club shifted. At one of the monthly meetings it was suggested that the club conduct a Beefsteak Dinner Fundraiser for a local student in fundraiser need. The rest is history.
Today the Do Good Students Support Group boasts over 160 executive members including local business owners, professionals and many diversified occupations. For the last nineteen years the Do Good Student Support Group has handed out a total of $769,000 in scholarships to deserving students throughout the
state.
We greatly appreciate any contribution you can make to our cause. Any donation you can make will go directly to supporting the educational journey of deserving students.
By making a contribution to the Do Good Student Support Group, you are making a significant contribution to the future of wonderful students.
By becoming a member of the Do-Good Student Support Group, you will gain access to the membership benefits and make a huge difference to students.
