YWCA Northern New Jersey Racial Justice Awards were created in observance of YWCA USA’s annual Stand Against Racism. These awards recognize individuals, organizations, and businesses that live our mission and have demonstrated leadership by working to eliminate racism and promote peace, justice, freedom, and dignity for all people. This annual event distinguishes the trailblazers who strive to make a difference in our community.
Here's how two of our volunteers came up with a heartwarming way to give back to the community. Follow @StringingUsTogether and order your bracelets now to benefit Bergen Family Center.
