With four days left in the OceanFirst Charity Challenge fundraiser, amounts raised by participating non-profits continue the trends noted on April 28 -- a wide variation in degrees of support, and a suggestion of priorities among the general population of donors.
The Society for the Prevention of Teen Suicide by May 12 had raised $52,903, up from $21,004 on April 28. Habitat for Humanity Monmouth County had raised $30,915, up from the $6,300 recorded on April 21.
Also as of May 12, the Count Basie Theatre's "Curtains Up for Kids" program, which allows schoolchildren to see Count Basie performances for free, had raised $19,440, up from $18,365 on April 28; Interfaith Neighbors' Kula Café in Asbury Park, which trains young adults for jobs in the hospitality industry, was at $6,150, up from $4,900 on April 28; Mercy Center Corporation, which serves the poor and underserved populations in Asbury Park, was at $4,125, up from $1,450 on April 28.
Meanwhile, The Historic Village at Allaire, a living history museum in Allaire State Park, held steady at $2,235, the amount recorded on April 28, which was up from $1,200 on April 21; HabCore, a program for housing the homeless, had accrued $875, up from $125 on April 28.
Among non-profits finding the least support were the Community Foodbank of New Jersey, and the ARC of Monmouth, which provides services that allow people with intellectual and developmental disabilities to live and work in their community. As of May 12, the Community Foodbank of New Jersey had raised $270, while the ARC had raised $135, up from $110 on April 28.
The OceanFirst Charity Challenge began on April 18 and concludes on May 16. OceanFirst will award a total of $30,000 in grant monies to the three non-profits who raise the most money, with $20,000 going to the top fundraiser, $5,000 for second place, and $2,500 for third place.
All the non-profits keep whatever funds they raise.
