We cannot fully express how thankful we are for last week’s Thanksgiving dinner at our Asbury Park Unit, made possible by the incredible generosity of Athletes Making Progress Together (AMPT).

Darren Waller of the NY Giants and Kelsey Plum of the Las Vegas Aces graciously hosted the event, creating an unforgettable experience for over 150 Club families. This celebration was made even more special thanks to our generous sponsors: Shoprite, The Butcher’s Block, and Four Boys Ice Cream.

The evening was filled with delicious food, a Q&A session with the athletes, a captivating dance performance by our talented Club kids, and an overwhelming sense of gratitude all around! Photos by Chris Frezza
