Memories of Madison Community House

Who remembers the times, as children, when they went to the Madison Community House (Settlement House, special to the Italian immigrants) and played a game or two of basketball or went to a scout meeting, or a dance class with Miss Lois / piano with Mrs. Lassiter, or attended summer programs or rhythm band, to name only a few activities? All these done under the watchful eye of Mr. Burroughs-a wonderful man who treated the "House" as his own and the kids as his children.

The MCH still provides the same services to the Community through the funds raised by its owner, the Thursday Morning Club. You can help keep this town icon alive by purchasing a ticket to the "Fabulous Fall Fundraiser". A 50%/25%/25% ticket is $100 with 50% of proceeds going to the MCH and two winners receiving 25% each of the proceeds. Ticket holders are invited to a Cocktail Reception on October 19, 2019 at the Madison Community House where the winners will be chosen. Music by Jerry Vezza and food by Divine Catering.

For more information about obtaining a raffle ticket or the event please contact Anne Lawless or Linda Gero or our website https://thursdaymorningclub.org/event/fabulous-fall-fundraiser-raffle-cocktail-reception/.

Proceeds from the event will benefit the Madison Community House, which is owned and operated by the Thursday Morning Club along with its Community House Preschool and Before and After School Child Care program. Organized in 1896, the Club is a member of both the New Jersey State and General Federation of Women's Clubs. The club offers programs and services to support the community, and its Community House provides a home for a number of sports, recreation and civic groups. The Thursday Morning Club is a non-profit service organization with over 260 members whose goal is to provide services for the town of Madison and neighboring communities.
