FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Rahfeal Gordon Foundation Receives its First Grant in its Continuous Efforts to Impact the Lives of Single Parent Mothers Living in Shelters within Newark, New Jersey

The Rahfeal Gordon Foundation received its first ever grant. Funds will support Rahfeal Gordon Foundation’s annual Whitney Holiday Dinner project in December 2022.

Newark, New Jersey?- The RahGor Foundation has received a generous grant to support the annual Whitney Dinner, a holiday dinner for single parent mothers living in homeless shelters within the city of Newark, New Jersey-USA.

In the early 1990’s, Whitney Houston, a legendary American singer, actress, producer, and model hosted Christmas parties for children and families who temporarily lived in shelters in Newark, New Jersey. As a young boy, Rahfeal Gordon, along with his mother and siblings, attend a Whitney Houston holiday dinner while living at The Apostle House shelter. That event had a lasting impact on Rahfeal, imprinting his mission to serve.

Rahfeal has made a personal commitment to keep Whitney’s holiday tradition going every year in the month of December. Since December 2016, he has hosts the annual Whitney Dinner dedicated to the residents at The Apostle House in Newark, NJ. The annual holiday dinner serves to provide a gift of support, holiday spirit and to champion those mothers who are navigating their way back from challenging circumstances. The Apostle House is recognized for its continued platform to serve, as it once was a safe haven for Rahfeal during his childhood.

About The Whitney Dinner: The Annual Whitney Dinner was established in December 2016 for single parent mothers living in shelters. The mission of the dinner project is to inspire and provide resources to better the lives of mothers who are living in shelters within the city of Newark, New Jersey and surrounding areas. The event has served over 100 single parent mothers living in the shelter since its launch.

About RahGor Foundation: The Rahfeal Gordon Foundation is an internationally recognized non-profit organization based in the United States. Our mission is to inspire and impact disadvantage communities around the world by developing extraordinary leaders, entrepreneurs, and creatives.
