What a difference a year makes. Prince dies, Donald Trump gets elected president and I lose my job. Through it all, we manage to steadily move onward and upward.... As for me, my passion comes from my first-hand experiences. I have overcome tremendous adversity throughout my life, starting with growing up in a household of sixteen where basic necessities were scarce. After the tragic loss of my mother at the age of 16, and then my younger brother just one year later, I knew I wanted to make a difference in the world. My understanding of the need and hunger for solutions in my community fuels my determination to help bring out significant change. Having overcome these tremendous odds has made my will to succeed even stronger. Looking forward to celebrating and strengthening relationships with you on Saturday, December 17, 2016.

We are made up of a group of volunteers, that's right, including me, giving much of our time and acquired skills to help empower residents and build healthier, sustainable communities. Your support will go unnoticed. No matter how small or large. None of what we do would be possible without you. That's right, because we don't receive government funding or corporate sponsorship means we work extra hard to turn a little of nothing into a whole lot of something for many to enjoy.
We have a lot of events planned for 2017 and in order to bring in the New Year with a leading start we need the support of the community. And to top it off, people will help me celebrate my bday, Sagittarius style.
For a minimum donation of $25, you will enjoy a full course meal, dessert, cocktails and entertainment.

Since 2012, Newark SAS has conducted free workshops on renewable energy, along with organized community events on wellness and nutrition education, urban agriculture, ecological building and eco-art.
“They’re a great grassroots organization and we at the Harvest Table want to support in any way we can,” states Carissa Borraggine, restaurant owner. Borraggine operates two restaurants in Newark’s business district. This event will take place at the 550 Broad Street location from 6:00 p.m. until 10:00 p.m.
Words can’t express how thankful I and the Newark SAS team are for your unyielding support. You make it possible for local residents to have access to fresh, locally grown produce. You make it possible for youth to participate in our programs such as our Eco Art Summer Camp or enjoy our Pedal Bike Powered Smoothie Bar. It is because of you that I refuse to give up hope or lose the will to continue being of service.
Newark SAS implements various initiatives to increase awareness of environmental issues through educational programs and hands-on training. We strive to assist with the creation of self-sustaining communities by developing pathways for green jobs that contribute to self-sufficiency and community empowerment. We are achieving this by partnering with residents, community based organizations and stakeholders, including local businesses.
