Jersey Women Strong is pleased to announce that Center for Hope and Safety will again be our charity partner for the Fall 2025 season. For the past 13 years, we have raised enough money to purchase and deliver 125 complete Thanksgiving meals to Center families who have moved from the emergency shelter to transitional housing. This holiday season, we have committed to once again purchasing turkeys, sides, desserts, and ShopRite gift cards for transitional program families.
Center for Hope and Safety is Bergen County, New Jersey’s leading full-service 501 (c) (3) agency for victims of domestic violence and the only agency in Bergen County that provides emergency shelter. Their mission is to assist women and children who are victims of domestic violence, including emotional, economic, sexual, and physical abuse. The agency provides emergency and transitional housing, emotional support, and a diversified continuum of services focused on safety, empowerment, and self-sufficiency. Through community partnerships, Center for Hope and Safety raises awareness, provides services, and educates community members about domestic violence.
One of the unique and special components of Jersey Women Strong, LLC's mission is our dedication to philanthropy. In addition to training for and racing in various events across the state and country, our team supports and participates in charitable outreach with local organizations by raising money, supplying needed items, and/or volunteering time.
This is our 14th year partnering with the Center, and we are incredibly proud of our impact on our local community. You can be assured that your contribution is going directly to these families. Any funds raised above the cost of the meals are used to purchase gift cards, which are distributed to transitional program children in December as part of the Center’s holiday gift-giving campaign.
