Emergency Relief for Immigrant Families
With your help, CIC provided $75,557 in emergency cash funds
to families left out of the stimulus relief program. Thank you!
Thank you to our 178 donors for your support of NJ Pandemic Relief for Families! Over the course of this campaign, we raised over $75,000 that has gone out to families in our community. We are also thrilled to share that the NJ Pandemic Relief Fund has come through with $1.3 million in $500 and $1000 gift cards which have been distributed to the community thanks to a massive volunteer-assisted rollout. As we bring this campaign to a close, we wanted to thank you again for your generosity and let you know your contribution is greatly appreciated by the recipient families.
