It's the Giving Season

It was a time to celebrate the season at the December CVAC meeting and Christmas party. Great food and conversation were had by all. But most importantly it will most certainly be a Merry Christmas for Summer Hesse and her children this year thanks to the generosity of the community and CVAC (Citizens/Veterans Advisory Committee).

"I am so very grateful, Hesse said to the group clearly overwhelmed by the outpouring of generosity.

CVAC, the only one of its kind in NJ, serves Cape May County Veterans is the only one of its kind. Hesse, who served in the Army as a medic was facing difficult times and concerned that her children would not have a Christmas. That's when CVAC stepped in with community and membership donations of gift cards, personal items and two bikes for her son Cashton and daughter Decoda.

NJ Health Hospice and Palliative Care was one of many CVAC members to donate gift cards. Others included Township of Lower Mayor Frank Sippel donated a boy's bicycle, Colleen Kearns, gave a girl's bicycle, Knights of Columbus Council #3546 donated a check or $500.00, Greater Wildwood Elks Lodge #1896 Veterans Committee: Gift Cards and Greg Speed: Gifts for Kids.
