Thank you to all who participated!

OUR MISSION

OUR INITIATIVES

School Supply Drives

We run backpack and school supply drives for middle school students in New Jersey.

College Scholarships

We award college scholarships to deserving high school seniors nationwide.  

THE ISSUE

Living in poverty has a tremendous impact on a young person's life. A child's physical, mental, social well-being are all negatively affected by the dynamics of systemic poverty. Some minority children and teenagers face challenges that oftentimes can only be overcome with the support of organizations like Aiden's Light.
