Rhett and Raina Ellison Visit Gruenert Center

On May 24th, NFL Star, New York Giants fullback Rhett Ellison and his wife, actress and model, Raina Ellison, visited Gruenert Center in Lake Hopatcong to spread some cheer and make a difference.  

"The Giants are my favorite team.  It was great to have Rhett here!" said Mary who is pictured to the right with Mr. Ellison.  

One of our Gruenert Center volunteers, Cathy Ritz, arranged for this special visit.

Rhett, Raina, their daughter Kaya and Jenny from Project Kind, visted Gruenert and participated in a Sandwich Making day in coordination with Project Kind to help feed the homeless.     

Project KIND creates opportunities and builds support systems for those experiencing homelessness.  they believe in strengthening ther community through kindness and helping those who are in need to achieve their goals.  Through their mobile street outreach team, they provide food, needed items and more for those in need. 

All of the suplies were donated and Rhett along with our Gruenert Center friends includedkind notes/pictures to include in the bags.  

 Rhett also brought gifts, signed autographs and truly brought joy to the people we serve. 

Thanks Rhett, Raina and the NY Giants Family!
