Giving Back

I’ve decided that, beginning with my 2009 weddings, to donate a portion of my Celebrant fee to an organization of the couple’s choosing, in their name.  I think it’s a great way to honor your wedding, as well as give back to these fabulous local organizations that need our support.

I’ve chosen these organizations, though would be willing to donate to any worthy organization of the couple’s choice.  I think this is a great way to give back, especially in these tough times, when organizations like these are especially needed – especially on the local level.

The Bergen County Animal Shelter

The Epilepsy Foundation of New Jersey

American Civil Liberties Union of New Jersey

New Jersey Humanist Network
