New Jersey SEEDS sends its warmest thanks to the friends, neighbors and more than 300 benefit attendees who were able to support us at the Leading Change Benefit, held April 3 at Maritime Parc. Thanks to your generous support, SEEDS raised more than $720,000 to develop future leader's from the state's least privileged communities.
We invite you to view all of the photos from our event, found here. To receive high-resolution versions of specific photos, please contact Theresa Murray at tmurray@njseeds.org or at (862) 227-9145.
New Jersey SEEDS would also like to recognize our benefit honorees, whose efforts have contributed to educational access across the state. Special thanks to:
"New Jersey SEEDS has had a tremendous impact on many aspects of my life. SEEDS not only helped open up opportunities for my education and career, but most importantly, helped shape my way of thinking and set a foundation for my desire to learn and to achieve. By attending the program with other young, diverse students, I learned to be open to others' perspectives, which has helped build my intellectual curiosity. When I think about all the achievements in my life, the opportunities that I have taken advantage of, and the interests and curiosities that I’ve developed, I always think about how this all stems from the learning and growth experience that I had with the SEEDS program at a very young age. New Jersey SEEDS set the foundation for me to explore my intellectual curiosities and to achieve my goals, and I am very thankful for that opportunity."
