On March 29, 2023, CJFHC was pleased to accept donation of over 5,000 diapers by the Central New Jersey (NJ) Chapter of The Links, Incorporated.  Pictured are CJFHC’s Fran Lo Raso, along with Cassandra Griffin and Lisa Redmond of The Links and Shakira Williams-Linzey, of the March of Dimes.  The donations were made by the members of the Central New Jersey (NJ) Chapter and the friends and families of the chapter members.

The Central New Jersey (NJ) Chapter of The Links, Incorporated has served the counties of Mercer, Middlesex, Monmouth, Somerset and Union Counties for over 70 years.  They were pleased to partner with the March of Dimes to support one of the many ways that the Central Jersey Family Healthy Consortium (CJFHC) provides services to members of the community.  Their L.A.M.B.S. (Links Aiding Moms to Be Strong) partnership with the March of Dimes, much like the programs of CJFHC, focuses on education and advocacy through community outreach.

From Jennifer White-Reid, President, Central New Jersey (NJ) Chapter The Links, Incorporated, “We hope that our donation of diapers will bless many families.  We also hope that we have brought more awareness to the increasing number of premature births and overall, the concerns regarding fetal-maternal health and mortality rates.  We look forward to partnering with you again to provide needed resources as we continue our relationship with the March of Dimes.
