Our Global Reach

OUR IMPACT

• Since 2021, the RH team has run yearly drives and distributed several hundreds of breastfeeding kits to mothers at Trinitas Hospital Program via local fundraising initiatives. 
• In 2022, the RH team has helped at-risk abused teen girls at the Robert Wood Johnson New Day Residential Teen Program with various resources through fundraising drives, such as book donations, individual electronic and speaker devices, study supplies, college application workshops, and self-defense workshops, as well as holiday gifts and outings. 
  New Day is a 15-bed teen residential program with five private rooms, a kitchen and living/group rooms. The program was specifically designed to support an all-female population based on need, and supports traumatized teens who have endured physical, emotional and sexual abuse.
