Denville, New Jersey. Saint Clare’s Health, along with volunteers from New Jersey’s Big Brothers Big Sisters program offered a fun-filled day for kids at Picatinny Arsenal’s Frog Falls Aquatic Park on Sunday, August 6. Sponsored by Saint Clare’s Health and members of the 2023 Class of LEAD Morris, Morris County Chamber of Commerce, the kids had a splash-filled day with lunch and giveaways.
Saint Clare’s Health’s Director of Emergency Medical Services, John Cronin, a participant in the event as a member of the 2023 Class of LEAD Morris stated, “I am proud to see many different agencies come together for a great cause.” “Providing the “Big” and “Little” siblings an opportunity to enjoy a day of fun makes all the efforts of our collaboration absolutely worth it.” Saint Clare’s Health is a committed participant in the Morris County Chamber of Commerce, including sending two leaders to LEAD Morris each year.
Saint Clare’s Health partnered with CP Engineers, Picatinny Arsenal, and the law office of Schenck, Price, Smith and King, LLP to make this event possible.
Big Brothers and Big Sisters is one of the nation’s largest volunteer-supported mentoring network, which partners adult volunteers with children to provide mentorship in communities across the country. This program allows children starting at 5 years old to be mentored by community partners to set them up for a life of educational and behavioral success.
