Harmony House Early Learning Center Accepts Holiday Donations for Children

Harmony House Early Learning Center (HHELC) Director Sister Maurice Liguori Okoroji accepted monetary donations from Dr. Kathleen Sternas, an associate professor at the Seton Hall University College of Nursing, to be used to purchase Christmas presents for the children at the center. Each year, Sternas organizes a group from the College of Nursing to purchase presents for HHELC children and delivers them. Because of the COVID-19 pandemic, her group provided a monetary donation instead. The children, families and staff members of HHELC are grateful for the generosity of the Seton Hall University College of Nursing community.

HHELC accepted donations of presents for the children from James Caldwell High School in West Caldwell. In a typical year, several of the high school’s students would come to HHELC to drop off the donations and play with the children, but because of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the students did not come. Instead, supervisor Jesse Braddell delivered the gifts. The children, families and staff members of HHELC extend their gratitude to the James Caldwell High School community.
