Community Partnerships
From the very beginning, we knew we could not change the landscape of family homelessness and poverty in our community alone. We knew it would take an army of volunteers – individuals and those who are mobilized by our community partners.
Some of those partners are businesses like Mathematica, which does so much for our young basketball players; congregations, like that of Prince of Peace Lutheran Church in West Windsor, which is our partner in the Cherry Tree Club preschool; schools like The Pennington School, which delights our families with amazing Christmas parties and other fun events; and not-for-profit organizations like Educational Testing Service, which has adopted the Lawrence Community Center as a favorite cause.
There are dozens of such partners, and more of them are joining up all the time. Sometimes we approach them, and sometimes they approach us. But whenever someone reaches down to help someone up, the effect is always uplifting.
