Our organization was formed by several residents of the NJ area. As a result of their observations of urban environments such as Jersey City and the economic and social conditions suffered by much of their inhabitants, they decided to take the initiative to devise and organization which would enhance the standard of living in such urban areas and develop the skills of their residents.
Consequently, a five-member Board of Directors was established and office space was acquired in the Corporations new headquarters at 861 Bergen Avenue in Jersey City. Currently, the body of the corporation consists of five Executive Board Members and several executive committees devoted to the specific need and goals of the Corporation
Our hope is to establish a safe haven for residents of Hudson County. However, those hopes can be realized through your help and contributions.
