'Stacey Is A Volunteer Extraordinaire': Bridgewater Patch Community Leader

BRIDGEWATER, NJ — Without community leaders, Bridgewater wouldn’t hum along nearly as smoothly as it does. We’d miss their contributions in big and small ways.

Patch has partnered with T-Mobile to recognize these often unsung community leaders and celebrate their contributions.

This submission comes from Michael, a Bridgewater reader who nominated Stacey Friedlander.

What does this community leader do?

Stacey is a volunteer extraordinaire and helped launch The Mask Squad (now Volunteer Squad) during the pandemic. She’s always given countless hours and time to the community whether it’s being involved in the schools, the JCC or her synagogue. She’s also currently serving as an elected member of the board of education.

Why do you believe the community leader should be recognized or honored?

She’s very humble. She does everything for everyone and doesn’t ever ask for anything in return. She is well known in the community as a wonderful person and a good human.

What's one thing you want everyone to know about the community hero?

Her ability to bring people together with kindness, love & humor makes her a woman of valor
