Page 8 THE VILLADOM TIMES III • September 30, 2009 Emmanuel asks... Can You Help? raise funds for ECF by hosting a “Pajama Day” or “Hat Day,” when everyone pays $5 for the privilege of wearing PJs or a hat to school. Schools can also fundraise by hosting a basketball game or a dance and charging admission. Manny is now two and has been meeting a big life challenge by combating leukemia since he was diagnosed last summer. Manny has two brothers, Johnny, 11, and William, 6. The boys’ parents are John and Alicia. John works for a delivery company and has had his hours cut back. Mom was cleaning homes, but quit to help Manny get to frequent doctor visits. He has had complications from the bone marrow transplant he had earlier this year. The family could use gift cards for gasoline stations, and clothing or department stores. The boys love Legos and Transformers and would be happy gifts of these items (new or used). This family has been struggling to keep things together and would be grateful for any help. A financial gift to our Family Financial Fund helps this family and many other families we serve. Call us at (201) 612-8118 before you stop by. Please do not leave items at the center without checking with us first. Our storage space is limited. Hours are Monday, 10 to 1; Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday, 10 to 5; and Thursday, 10 to 2.

This year, we are asking the community, including schools, houses of worship, and places of work, to consider becoming involved with us at a greater level. Whether you currently help us or never have helped us in any way, we invite you to get involved at this critical time. Many non-profit organizations such as ours have experienced a significant drop in contributions. Involvement can take many forms, but doesn’t have to take a lot of time. For example, businesses can host a fundraiser such as a “Dress Down Day, when employees make a donation to wear casual clothes,” host a Golf Outing, or contribute a certain percentage of profits for one day. Schools can collect non-perishable food items, or PNC Vice President David Parisi, Eastwick Education President Thomas M. Eastwick, Kathe Arzdorf, HoHoKus School of Trade Director Alan Concha, and PNC Vice President Thomas Kathe Arzdorf, a long-time resident of Towaco, has donated $50,000 to the HoHoKus School Scholarship Foundation (a non-profit 501-3C corporation) for HoHoKus School of Trade students who are studying manufacturing technology. The donation is a tribute to Arzdorf’s late husband, Siegfried. “When Siegfried passed, I wanted to create a lasting legacy of him by helping students who love to work with their hands like he did,” Arzdorf explained. The couple came to America from Germany in 1954 and launched a successful business in the foam industry, the Arzdorf Machinery & Development Corporation.
