To the Editor:
On behalf of the Bayonne Housing Authority Homework Assistance Program, I would like to express sincere thanks and gratitude on behalf of each student who received a gift of their choice this holiday season, due to the generosity of the community during this year’s annual toy drive.
I would first like to thank Mayor James Davis, the Bayonne City Council members, the Bayonne Housing Authority Board of Commissioners, and Bayonne Housing Authority Executive Director John Mahon for their continued support of the program and the holiday toy drive.
I would also like to thank the following individuals and groups for their generous donations: Free-holder Kenneth Kopacz, the Kopacz Family, the Gary La Palusa Association, the Bayonne Chapter of UNICO National, Christine LaFrance, Danny Boys Pub and their patrons, Bayonne Housing Authority Administration and Staff, Henry Harris Peer Leadership, Bayonne Board of Education Central Administration, Café Bello and their patrons, the Irish American League, the Donegal Association, the Shamrock Society of Bayonne, Bayonne High School Administration and Staff, members and friends of Robbins Reef Yacht Club, and numerous family and friends.
Everyone listed above made this holiday season a special one for all the students who attend the B.H.A. Homework Assistance Program and your continued generosity each year is very much appreciated.
Wishing you and your families a healthy and happy 2018.
MICHAEL OLESKY
