Although gathering in person was not possible this year, EmPoWER still joyfully coordinated the 9th Annual Community Hope Veterans Appreciation Dinner. Meals, holiday gift bags, stress management magnets, and other goodies were distributed to all Veterans. Girl Scout Troop 60038 donated hats, gloves, and scarves. This event was made possible by generous funding from Somerville Elks Lodge #1068 and NJPN.
