Crisis Ministry Receives $25,000 Grant

The J. Seward Johnson, Sr. 1963 Charitable Trust has awarded a grant of $25,000 to the Crisis Ministry of Princeton and Trenton, money that will support general operating costs of the nonprofit organization that serves low-income households in Mercer County.

“We are grateful that the legacy of Mr. Johnson’s generosity is extended to our organization’s mission through the 1963 Charitable Trust,” said Carolyn Biondi, Crisis Ministry's executive director.

The same trust, in 2010, gave an endowment grant of $250,000 to support the annual salary of the organization’s Princeton office director. The Princeton office serves about 200 households per month through its homelessness prevention program and food pantry.
