Jefferson Health Gifts Electric Guitar Package to Washington Township, Other South Jersey Districts
WASHINGTON TOWNSHIP – Washington Township Superintendent of Schools Joe Bollendorf was among leaders from several South Jersey school districts invited to Lucien’s Manor in West Berlin on Wednesday, November 20th, where Jefferson Health donated 24 new electric guitar packages to the respective schools’ music programs.
The guitars were built as part of a team-building exercise among more than 250 Jefferson Health New Jersey managers. In the past, Jefferson managers from their Cherry Hill, Stratford and Washington Township campuses have fabricated wheelchairs to donate to Camden and Gloucester County veterans’ offices, and donated food to the Food Bank of South Jersey. The donations support Jefferson’s organization-wide mission to improve lives, including those beyond the walls of its hospitals and medical practices.
Each guitar package included two guitars, a mini-amplifier, cords and cables, and a case.
