My name is Anthony Diaz the executive director and co founder of the Newark Water Coalition and I am raising funds for the funeral and memorial expenses of Lenny Thomas. Lenny was an active member of several community organizations in the city of Newark and has touch many lives through his work with technology, as a teacher and with the parks. $5,000 of this goal is for the direct funeral expenses and the additional $5,000 is to support a larger community memorial service at St. Stephan's church. Any leftover funds will go to support a physical memorial hopefully in Riverbank Park. For any questions or concerns feel free to reach out to me.

**** Viewing and memorial service dates have not been decided****
