Isn’t that a gorgeous skyline above? The photo was taken by one of our members in the event planning division, Tiffani N. Artis. She was snapping away with her camera at our members only social last month. We had quite the ride, a ferry ride to be exact. It was a day full of laughter and fun! We enjoyed popcorn and the painful bursts of brain freeze, which resulted from the mango and cherry slushies we had purchased from the ferry station.

We thought of you! We thought of your commitment and encouraging words, our loyal supporters, we would not be where we are today without supporters like you. It was a day to discuss our achievements and flaws openly as a group. We came up with solutions and discussed strategies. We welcomed change that day! Over 30+ programs and 900+ lives touched, we’re at the starting line for something greater than ourselves.

   

We are in need of individuals that would like to teach lessons, through our interactive literacy programs for youth between ages 4-5; 8-12. We have partnered with various sites in the Newark, NJ area. All volunteers will be briefed, trained, and go through a process prior to volunteering at a site. All volunteers will be assisted by a Gem Project member and will have a lesson plan to follow ahead of time.
