From Our Family to Yours” EOF Thanksgiving Dinner Donation Drive

We are proud to announce that our EOF students successfully donated Thanksgiving dinners to more than 5 families of the York Street Project located in Downtown Jersey City. As stated on their website: Established in 1989, the York Street Project is actually a network of four interrelated and coordinated, but separate programs to help homeless and economically-disadvantaged women and children break the cycle of poverty and begin a life of self-sufficiency. For more information about the York Street Project please visit their website http://www.yorkstreetproject.org/

We are very proud of all our EOF students for their generosity and kindheartedness.
