Church & Dwight Donates $10,000 to Crisis Ministry

The money will go to help Mercer County residents with rent assistance.

The Employee Giving Fund of Church and Dwight awarded a grant of $10,000 to the Crisis Ministry of Princeton and Trenton.

The grant will support Crisis Ministry's rent assistance program, part of the agency's Homelessness Prevention program. The program, which also includes assistance for clients struggling with utilities or mortgage payments, has helped 695 families to remain stably and safely housed in 2011.

“We are grateful for the generosity and leadership shown by the employees of Church and Dwight," said Carolyn Biondi, executive director of the Crisis Ministry.
