Remembering Jim Marten

We are deeply saddened to learn of the passing of Jim Marten, one of NECAT’s most loyal and fervent supporters. Jim and his late wife Shirley believed in NECAT’s mission well before our center opened in 2013 and continue to provide financial support for NECAT to this day.

In recognition of their generosity, we have established the Marten Family Foundation Student Leadership Award in their honor. The award recognizes the most outstanding graduate in each of our cohorts.

The entire NECAT family extends our condolences to the Marten family.

Maarten Hemsley, NECAT Founder and President
