​Donna Cox
 
   This quote sits at the top of Donna Cox’s website: "The distance between mediocre and exceptional is measured in steps. Always take the extra steps and you will always be exceptional." It was the favorite expression of Donna’s Father, Donald Scruggs and continues to guide and inspire Donna both personally and professionally to try to make the world a better place – one step at a time.
   For 10 years Nyack resident Cox has sponsored the center's annual June event, "Men Cooking," one of the largest fundraisers for Nyack Center. Cox is a founding member of Rockland County's first LGBT Center; supports Gay Pride Rockland, People to People and the Steven A. Cox Foundation causes that promote social justice and equality.

​Nyack Center more than a community building, a place for building community through…a place we can all depend upon for a community meeting room, a holiday reading, a friendly face, and place for respite.

-Peter Klose, Esq
Attorney, Rockland Rowing Association Board Member, and Nyack Center supporter

Nyack Center is so grateful to the Rowing Association  Board, members and supporters for their contributions to Nyack Center through the years. For 10 Years the Rowing Association has raised funds for Nyack Center with their annual Pull for Purpose Rowathon. Each year they raise over $10,000 to benefit Nyack Center's programs. Since its inception, River Rowing has held rowing workshops and classes open to Nyack Center children including those at Camp Nyack!

River Rowing Association is now the Rockland Rowing Association!  The  mission remains the same, to improve the lives of our community members through rowing.   Go Rockland! Find out more at www.riverrowing.org and like them on Facebook.

Nyack Center more than a community building, a place for building community through...events, which create opportunities for residents to share proud traditions and shape the future.  Nyack Center is the site where people historically pushed to the margins are welcomed and celebrated. Nyack Center embodies many of the qualities that make Nyack a community that people far and wide always consider home.  It is fitting that Nyack Center is located in the heart of our beloved community because Nyack Center represents the soul of the community.
