Dorothea's House

The first offering of the 2026-27 season of Dorothea’s House programs will feature soprano Mara Adler, an expert in Neapolitan music who has performed around the world from Naples, Italy, to San Francisco, sharing the beauty, passion, and charm of this beloved tradition.

Hi.&nbsp; 
My name is Brooke, and I&rsquo;m a Mercer County mom reaching out with a local human-interest story about my son, Asher.
Asher is currently competing in the national Baby of the Year competition, which supports Baby2Baby, a nonprofit that provides diapers, clothing and other necessities to children living in poverty. We are hoping our local community will rally around him as he continues through the voting rounds.
Asher is 7.5 months and lives in Hopewell/Pennington.&nbsp;He is always smiling and loving, joyful, affectionate little boy who loves to laugh and playing with his siblings &nbsp;
Would you consider helping by voting and sharing Asher&rsquo;s journey with others. Voting includes a free daily vote, with optional donated votes benefiting the campaign&rsquo;s charitable mission. Today September 21 specifically is double the votes for 1 votes he will get 2. You can donate $10 and give him 20 votes also.&nbsp;
Asher&rsquo;s voting page is:&nbsp;<a href="https://babyoftheyear.org/2026/asher-f7b6" rel="noopener nofollow" target="_blank">[Asher Cruz Boty]</a>
The voting for top baby ends on Oct 8, at 7pm EST, so any help sharing his story would mean so much to our family.
Thank you for considering a positive local story about a Mercer County child and the community supporting him.
Warmly,
Brooke Cruz <a href="mailto:Bseidl11@gmail.com" rel="noopener nofollow" target="_blank">Bseidl11@gmail.com</a>&nbsp; Hopewell/Pennington, New Jersey
