Holiday Food Drive
This holiday season we would like to make sure that local pantries have enough food to meet the needs of this trying time. As the numbers of those affected by the economic downturn grows, the strain on our already taxed food banks increases. Already struggling to meet this need, this time of year is when they run dangerously low. For this reason, we will be donating food supplies, which will help feed 150 families.
Project Piano Keys
Budget shortfalls have become a too common part of the fiscal status of our towns. And far too often, these shortfalls require the cutting of essential programs in our school districts. As members of society, it is our duty to raise up the next generation of leaders and thinkers. While the need for textbooks and salaries and maintenance costs deservedly require the focus of a school's budget, the loss of programs for the arts can be devastating to developing children. To this end, we will raising funds to purchase an upright piano for a local school district. The power of music and art in the lives of the youth should not be underestimated. Whether it's an appreciation of the classics or the latest pop mashup, we want to be sure that constructive creative outlets are available to all children. This will be one of our larger projects and we can certainly use your help.
If you would like to help us with any of our projects and goals, please reach out to us. Together, we can uplift our fellow man.
Children's Hospital Play Room
On October 16, 2009, we recently delivered $400 worth of toys to St. Peter's Children's Hospital in New Brunswick, NJ. The toys will be placed in one of three play rooms to be used by the patients and their families. By brightening the mood and bringing smiles to their faces, the difficult healing process can be improved.
Food Bank Delivery
This summer we donated groceries to St Something Food Bank. The summer months can be a difficult time for families with children. While the state of New Jersey has great school lunch programs during the year, these very same children lose out over the summer. The strain on local food pantries can be overwhelming. Our donation provided enough groceries to satisfy the nutrional needs of 300 people.
