Hamilton Horizons's Social Action Committee works year-round raising funds for charity organizations such as Credit Unions For Kids and the Children's Home Society of New Jersey. Credit Unions For Kids supports Children's Miracle Network of the greater Hamilton Township area in raising necessary funds to aid in the health care of terminally ill children. The Children's Home Society of New Jersey provides cost-effective welfare services to abused children and their families, empowering them to achieve their fullest potential.

Funds for these organizations are raised through:

• Candy Sales
• Quarter Sales
• Operation Easter Bunny
• Project Housewarming

and through Hamilton Horizons-sponsored events/programs, including:

• Trenton Thunder baseball game
• Credit Union Night at a Titans Hockey Game
• The Suitcase Crusade - a used luggage drive for foster children
• The Wish Upon A Star/Adopt-A-Child Christmas Gift Program
• The Suitcase Crusade
• Operation Easter Bunny - check newsletter for details
• Donations of Easter candy, toys & baskets during the month of March and at the credit union's Annual Meeting
• An Evening At The Opera (coming Fall 2002)

The School Tools Drive
We are collecting backpacks, pencils, notebooks, school supplies, etc. for the foster children of Children's Home Society, during those months to be delivered before the new school year begins... look for more information about this project in the July addition of HORIZONS.

Volunteers Needed!
We're looking for a few good men - and women and children - to share a little of their time for a good cause. If you would like to volunteer to help Hamilton Horizon's fundraising efforts, whether with a specific project or by serving on our Social Action Committee, please contact us. If you have a big heart, you're qualified!
