LONG BRANCH, N.J. - JerseyDesk -- As Thanksgiving approaches, Shore House is taking a moment to express its heartfelt gratitude to the members, staff, donors, volunteers and community partners who have stood by the nonprofit organization throughout the year, especially during a time of unexpected challenges.

Following the significant damage to its Long Branch clubhouse earlier this year, Shore House experienced firsthand the strength of a community coming together. From generous donations and temporary meeting spaces to countless acts of kindness, the outpouring of support has helped Shore House continue its mission of providing connection, purpose and opportunity for adults living with mental illness.

"This Thanksgiving, we are especially grateful for the incredible people who make Shore House what it is," said Rich Ambrosino, Executive Director. "Our members inspire us every day with their resilience and determination, and the generosity of our supporters reminds us that we are never alone. We are truly thankful for everyone who has helped us through this challenging time."
