Millburn Varsity Tennis Player Holds 2nd Annual Charity Match

Aryn Juneja, a Varsity Tennis Player at Millburn High School, organized the 2nd Annual Short Hills Community Charity Tennis Tournament on Saturday, June 15th, 2019 to support the Education Foundation of Millburn-Short Hills and Phyt Cares, the 501c3 U.S. tax-exempt and 1101.01 Puerto Rico tax-exempt non-profit that educates youth and communities in New York City and Puerto Rico through fitness.

The tennis tournament took place at Millburn High School’s Tennis Courts and Juneja raised over $1500 for both non-profits. Juneja was instrumental in organizing all aspects of the event, from inspiring the community to participate, reaching out to local businesses to sponsor the prizes and provide refreshments for the event.

“Our 2nd Annual Short Hills Community Charity Tennis Tournament was a great success and I look forward to organizing this event in subsequent years to inspire the township to support two great causes: the Education Foundation of Millburn-Short Hills and Phyt Cares,” Juneja said.

Last year, Juneja’s older sister, Siya, who graduates Millburn High School this month, spearheaded the inaugural Short Hills Community Charity Tennis Tournament.

“The Ed Foundation and our entire board would like to thank Aryn for organizing the 2nd Annual Tennis Tournament to support our schools,” said Simon Westfall-Kwong, President. “Due to students like him rallying for our cause, we will continue our mission to provide more resources to the schools and our students.”

“Phyt Cares is extremely honored to be one of the charity partners of the annual Short Hills Community Charity Tennis Tournament,” said Elana Margulies-Snyderman, Co-Founder, Phyt Cares. “Due to the community’s support, we are able to continue our mission of educating more youth and communities through our fitness programs.”

Juneja, the Education Foundation of Millburn-Short Hills and Phyt Cares would like to thank all the tournament’s local businesses who sponsored the tournament: La Strada Nuova & Goldberg’s Famous Deli, who provided refreshments; Summit Ski & Sport who donated the tennis balls and finally, the businesses who provided gift cards for the tournament’s participants: Pita on Essex, MoonShine, Salon La Mode, Boxcar Bar & Grill, La Cucina di Clemenza Ristorante, Basilico and Cara Mia.
