About Us
The Friends of the Newbury Council on Aging (FNCOA) is a private nonprofit 501c3 tax-exempt organization. Our sole purpose is to raise money to supplement the programs and services of the Newbury Council on Aging for the seniors in the Town of Newbury.

The Friends of the Newbury Council on Aging provide funds that underwrite emergencies for the seniors of Newbury, COA center activities, social services and educational programs, and special events such as the annual Volunteer Recognition Luncheon and Holiday Luncheon for the senior residents of Newbury. We access grants and raise funds to provide the Newbury Council on Aging with financial support for its programs and services for seniors in the community.
The Friends of the Newbury Council on Aging Board currently meets monthly at the Newbury Town Library. Please visit the News and Events page on this website for the date of our next board meeting.
