Reflecting on 2019, Welcoming 2020

December 20, 2019

Dear Friend of NJCH,

If there’s one uplifting thing that we witness daily through our projects and programs, it’s people’s dedication to improving their communities.  In our own partners and program participants, we see people bravely facing big shared questions and diligently addressing injustices, sparking the conversations that ultimately create more cohesive neighborhoods and workplaces through empathy and deeper understanding of others.  Their work inspires and motivates us.

Just as we have at the start of each new year since 1972, we are taking this holiday season to reflect on the past and consider what’s to come in the future.  We will enter 2020 with a renewed commitment to the residents of New Jersey, to foster the exploration of history, cultures, values, and beliefs in order to create stronger communities.  If this work inspires you too and you would like to contribute a tax-deductible gift, you can donate online today.

We’d like to take this moment to wish you and yours a very Happy New Year.

Sincerely,

Dan Fatton
NJCH Board of Trustees, Chair

Carin Berkowitz, Ph.D.
NJCH Executive Director
