Description

Our names are Lindsay Nalepa and Nickolas Vosinas and we work at Metuchen High School as teachers, Special Education and World Language respectively. Along with being proud residents of Metuchen, we are also co-chairpersons of the Social Committee at MHS. Each year, the Social Committee strives to welcome staff to the building and create a positive climate in the school for all faculty members. We work hard to make sure we improve morale so that we can provide amazing learning opportunities and engaging activities for our students.

This year is yet another stressful one for many families in our community who are in need. As the Social Committee, our mission is to support our school community and their families in any way that we can. This year, we will host our 4th annual holiday fundraising event that raised more than $3000 last year for families in need! 100% of all funds raised go directly to support these families.  

We would like to ask that you help us to host a successful holiday fundraising event by donating gift certificates, merchandise, or services! Anything you are able to offer as a prize in our holiday fundraiser would be greatly appreciated. 

If you choose to contribute to our school, you will be giving more than just a donation. You will be giving hope to a family in our own community. You’ll be a hero to our staff.  Nevertheless, we do understand that many businesses are going through financial hardship, and may be unable to donate at this time. We thank you for your business's past, present, and future contributions to the entire Metuchen community.

Please feel free to contact us at 732-331-5910 or by email lnalepa@metboe.k12.nj.us or nvosinas@metboe.k12.nj.us if you have any additional questions about this initiative or if you’d like to support us in another way. 

All of us at Metuchen High School thank you in advance for your support!
