The Church & Dwight Company, Inc. Employee Giving Fund has made an end-of-the-year $50,000 award to Rescue Mission of Trenton.  The grant was a combination of employee giving and a company matching gift. The grant was among various awards made to community-based organizations in Mercer County serving the less fortunate.

“Church & Dwight’s Employee Giving Fund has been a stalwart supporter of the Mission over the last few years and we greatly appreciate their support.  In these very difficult times, this special end-of-the year gift is a godsend for us as it will help to offset reductions in support in various areas,” indicates Mary Gay Abbott-Young, the Mission’s CEO.

The Church & Dwight Employee Giving Program is workplace giving program currently administered by a committee of employees representing a cross section of those employed at the Princeton and Cranbury, Church & Dwight facilities. 

The Rescue Mission of Trenton is the agency in the City of Trenton that serves the truly needy men and women who have no place to turn for shelter, food, and clothing.  The Mission provides a safe, clean, warm refuge for the homeless, the hungry, the transient, and the addicted.
