Thank You, Hearts of Watchung and Cindy Homer!

We are so grateful for the incredible support from the Adopt-A-Family program. Your generosity has brought joy and hope to the families we serve this holiday season. Thank you for making such a meaningful difference!

A special shoutout to Maintenance by Diaz for ensuring all the gifts made it safely to our agency, and to our amazing staff, family, and especially the one and only Karen Flannagan! Karen’s dedication—starting our Christmas list as early as summer—helped make it possible to provide over 150 gifts to the community we serve.

Some good reminders for December!

Veterans Day is a moment to pause, honor, and express our gratitude to the brave men and women who have served in the armed forces. May this day inspire us all to reflect on the cost of freedom and renew our commitment to peace, unity, and gratitude.
To our veterans: Thank you for your service.

On this day.... 23years ago, 246 people went to sleep in preparation On this day.... 23years ago, 246 people went to sleep in preparation On this day.... 23 years ago, 246 people went to sleep in preparation for their morning flights. 2,606 people went to sleep in preparation for work in the morning. 343 firefighters went to sleep in preparation for their morning shift. 60 police officers went to sleep in preparation for morning patrol. 8 paramedics went to sleep in preparation for the morning shift. None of them saw past 10:00am Sept 11, 2001. In one single moment life may never be the same. As you live and enjoy the breaths you take today and tonight before you go to sleep in preparation for your life tomorrow, kiss the ones you love, snuggle a little tighter, and never take one second of your life for granted. 💙🇺🇸💙 for their morning flights. 2,606 people went to sleep in preparation for work in the morning. 343 firefighters went to sleep in preparation for their morning shift. 60 police officers went to sleep in preparation for morning patrol. 8 paramedics went to sleep in preparation for the morning shift.
