Press release from the Our House Foundation:

December 17, 2020

New Providence, NJ —2020 has been a challenging year to say the least. Challenging, yet Our House has made it to the end of year when many nonprofits may not have been so lucky. “We are so lucky to have a community of supporters like no other! Throughout the year our families and friends of Our House supported when they could, and asked others to join in supporting Our House’s mission. For that we are eternally grateful,” shares Dawn Knill, Our House Foundation Director of Development.

It was during this time that Our House witnessed the continued and incredible dedication and love of their "Heroes". Their staff, their families and the community have done and continue to do whatever is needed to support the Our House residents. “We are so proud of how our residents have thrived during this time despite the disruption in their routines” comments Cathy Colford, VP of Development.

As we approach the busiest time of the year for fundraising we ask you to view the short video at this link https://youtu.be/ONhS9yU8boI and consider helping Our House end the year strong financially.
