The Chesapeake Multicultural Resource Center (ChesMRC) empowers people from different cultures to become successful and engaged members of our community.
An Eastern Shore with a multi-culturally vibrant population that is economically productive, politically engaged, and socially committed to human dignity.
BACKGROUND & HISTORY
Originally launched as a project of the Mid-Shore Community Foundation in September of 2012, ChesMRC now functions as an independent 501(c)(3) non-profit community-based organization.
The Center is organized and led by a Board of Directors comprised of local citizens who support the mission and objectives of ChesMRC along with an Executive Director and staff.
Since it’s inception in 2012, ChesMRC has provided services to more than 8,000 clients in Talbot and surrounding counties, involving over 25,000 unique services provided. No other organization is addressing this need.
