“Ten seniors from our school attended this with me. We were all blown away by the efforts that your organization is putting forth to help the people of Little Ferry. The men that we had lead us were even more impressive. Their patience, kindness, and commitment to service was a great example for my students. Our students learned about what is really important in life – giving back and helping others.” Dave B., Ridgewood High School, Volunteer
Building affordable housing and strengthening communities has been an amazing and life-changing opportunity. As a former Board member, the experience has been incredibly rewarding, especially witnessing the pure joy when a family finally gets the keys to a new home they helped to build.
