Thanksgiving is part of a broader celebration as it affords unique
opportunities for strengthening unity, comradeship, service and
love. On Tuesday, November 22nd
the LMM School Community
along with our community partners: Pastor Pablo Pizarro (Lead
Pastor of Light House Assembly of God), Jacqueline Quiles
(Newark Deputy Mayor of Community Engagement), ASPIRA
Program, El Merengue’s Restaurant of Newark, SuzyQue’s
Restaurant of West Orange, United Way and Costco sponsored a
generous and heart-felt dinner for 50 families. As a school of
social justice, the culture of helping those in need has been
established since 2014 and is an honor to be able to show that we
care about all members in the local community. That evening
many students enjoyed family time while consuming a delicious
holiday meal. Meeting the demands of the 21st century makes it
challenging for many of our families to sit and eat together. On
this day, we made this happen!
