A Big Week for the AJJ Fund!
MEET THIS YEAR'S AJJ WINNERS!
This is a big week for the AJJ Scholarship Fund, and we're so grateful to have you with us. Last night, two of Art's children, Julia and Cary, alongside his mother, Marilyn, attended the Hampton Bays High School awards ceremony to present this year's scholarship winners. It was a moving reminder of why the Fund exists, and the lasting impact Art continues to have on our community. This marks the 25th year that the Fund has awarded scholarships to deserving students at Hampton Bays High School - a tradition born of love, remembrance and the desire to make a lasting and impactful difference in young lives.This year's awards were once again substantial and we couldn't have done it without you. It is only through your continued support and generosity that we were able to present $35,000 to eight commendable students - Caitlyn, Lillyann, Johnny, Toby, Kai, Caeden, Cooper and Jeffrey. Each one embodies Art's spirit - strong, well-rounded students, athletes and inclusive individuals. Please join us in congratulating them and wishing them success in their college years and beyond!Today we continue the celebration and gather for one of our favorite traditions: the annual AJ Golf Outing in honor of Artie. We sold out foursomes and had a waiting list in a record four hours; filled the many sponsorships; and expect a large turnout for dinner - a true testament to the love and support surrounding Art, his family and this cause. We look forward to a beautiful day, filled with love, laughter, and remembrance - all in celebration of Art's life and legacy, and all for a cause that continues to change lives and bring opportunity and hope to deserving students. Golf may be sold out, but you can still join us for a fun evening of cocktails, camaraderie, auctions, and dinner. Click here if you would like to attend. We appreciate your role in creating something that Art would be proud of. With your support, the AJJ Scholarship Fund has awarded nearly $500,000 over 25 years — a legacy we couldn’t build without you! Cheers to 25 more years! |
