Linden Mayor Honors Girl for Helping During the COVID-19 Pandemic

Linden Girl Helps her Town During the COVID-19 Pandemic

Gabriela is a 9 year old student at School #2 who loves arts and crafts and helping others. One morning she said to her mother, “Mommy, I want to help people that are not working and don’t have food. I want to find a way to help families in need that are going through hard times.” Little Gabriela came up with a plan to make bracelets to sell for $5 each. With the support of her mother, Gabriela used the money to buy food to help families affected by COVID-19 in her hometown of Linden, NJ. Gabriela is helping the town with their COVID-19 Emergency Food Relief Program. Gabriela was so excited when Mayor Derek Armstead paid her a special visit.
