AFT Wins A Community Thrives Matching Grant !

We’re thrilled to share that we received a local operating grant from USA TODAY NETWORK’s A Community Thrives initiative for 2021! A Community Thrives, which is part of the Gannett Foundation, supports non-profit organizations like ours with projects focused on community building. This grant will go to support our efforts to help make Teaneck as great a place to grow old as it is to grow up.

A special thank you to those whose donations helped us reach our goal and become eligible for this local operating matching grant.
