About
CCOBH
Mission
To protect and enhance the quality of life and wellbeing of the people
and communities of Brandywine Hundred.
History
CCOBH is a nonpartisan civic
umbrella organization that consists of some 120 civic organizations
that represent most of the communities and neighborhoods in Brandywine
Hundred. It is the oldest and largest organization of its type in
Delaware. CCOBH was originally formed in 1928 as the Blue Rock Mens
Club, which was reformed in 1938 as the Brandywine Hundred Civic
Association. In 1950 the name was changed to the current Council of
Civic Organizations of Brandywine Hundred, and in 1967 the CCOBH was
incorporated as a nonprofit organization operating under Section
501(c)(4) of the Internal Revenue Code. The primary purposes
of the corporation are:
- to consider quality-of-life issues and to promote
better standards of living in Brandywine Hundred;
- to promote, encourage, and/or assist worthwhile movements
that will benefit Brandywine Hundred and its residents; and
- to contribute in every way possible to an atmosphere of
tolerance,
friendliness and a positive community spirit throughout Brandywine
Hundred.
While the Council's primary focus is
on Brandywine
Hundred, it also promotes civic improvements and public policy
ordinances and legislation that benefit the citizens throughout New
Castle County and the State of Delaware.
The Council welcomes the aid and cooperation of all
interested
individuals and public and private groups who share our commitment to
maintain and enhance the quality of life and the wellbeing of the
communities of Brandywine Hundred.
