A Timeline of Our Outreach
December 11, 2024 - Necessities Drive Donation Drop Off to Center for Food Action
Our team went to the Center for Food Action, a non-profit organization that provides emergency services to low-income families in New Jersey, to drop off over 200 items that we collected during our necessities drive.

The Center for Food Action is a nonprofit organization that aims to improve the lives of individuals and families living in poverty. We hope that the donations we provided will ensure that another child won’t go to bed hungry, unwashed, or changed. Through providing this help, we hope that children will feel encouraged to overcome the hardships of their situation and to have hope.
December 9, 2024 - Necessities Drive Donation Drop Off to Oasis
Our team went to Oasis, a women’s and children’s shelter in Paterson, NJ, to drop off over 200 items that we collected during our necessities drive.
-
Oasis is a nonprofit organization located in Paterson, NJ that aims to help women and children rise out of poverty. They actively change lives and break the cycle of poverty through their programs and shelter. They use their support services to help women and children have hope despite their circumstances. We were able to spread hope to the children living in this shelter through supporting an organization whose mission aligns with ours.
November 1 - November 30, 2024 - Necessities Drive
During November, we collected food, hygiene products, and baby products for the women and children’s shelters of our community. Through this drive, we were able to raise over 400 items!
August 31, 2024 - Back to School Supplies Donations
We went to Paterson, New Jersey and distributed 72 backpacks filled with pencils, folders, notebooks, and pencil cases that we created from the money we raised from our fundraiser bake sale. We also included a surprise face mask and waterbottle!
-
Every year, families struggle with providing their children with school supplies. Through distributing these backpacks, we were able to remove some of the burden children have of not being prepared for school. By helping them feel prepared, we provided them hope for the upcoming school year.
August 18, 2024 - School Supplies Fundraiser
We had a bake sale at Joy Christian Fellowship and raised over $1000 for our Back to School Donation!
