At Family ReBuild of New Jersey, we believe that true community stability is not a static goal, but a dynamic, ongoing commitment to the families who call South Jersey home. As we look toward the summer of 2026, we are extending an invitation to our corporate partners and state leaders to join us in a visionary endeavor.
This isn't just about a single night of celebration; it’s about a strategic investment in the social and economic fabric of Camden, Burlington, and the surrounding counties. On July 11th, 2026, we will host our annual ‘Partying for a Purpose’ fundraiser, a high-impact event designed to celebrate resilience while securing the resources necessary to keep our community whole.
The Executive Summary: Why South Jersey?
The stability of South Jersey depends on the stability of its families. Since our founding in 2020, Family ReBuild of New Jersey has been a cornerstone for those facing the most difficult transitions of their lives. We have successfully guided over 750 families through the complexities of displacement, moving them from the brink of crisis into sustainable, dignified living situations.
Displacement is more than just a housing issue; it is a catalyst for a cycle of instability that affects employment, education, and health. Our mission is to interrupt that cycle. By providing financial assistance, emergency housing, and critical emotional counseling, we ensure that the families who drive our local economy have the support they need to remain resilient. You can read more about our specific approach in The Partners’ Guide to Strategic Impact in South Jersey Social Services.
A Record of Proven Impact (2020–2026)
Since 2020, we have measured our success not just in numbers, but in the restored dignity of the people we serve.
- 750+ Families Served: We have provided a lifeline to hundreds of households navigating the trauma of displacement.
- Holistic Support: We recognize that a roof is only the beginning. Our programs address the "hidden" costs of instability, which we explore in depth in our article on The Hidden Cost of Displacement.
- Economic Empowerment: By keeping families in their communities, we maintain local workforces and school enrollment, contributing to the overall health of the New Jersey economy.
Our work is rooted in the belief that everyone deserves to be treated with respect. This "Dignity First" philosophy is the secret ingredient to our high success rates.

Our Pillars of Service
Investing in Family ReBuild means investing in a three-pillar strategy that addresses the root causes of family instability.
1. Financial Assistance and Stability
We provide the bridge funding necessary to prevent displacement before it starts. For many families, a single unexpected expense can lead to a crisis. Our Family Assistance Programs provide the stability needed to stay the course.
2. Emergency Housing
When a crisis occurs, immediate safety is the priority. We work tirelessly to ensure that no family is left without a safe place to sleep. Our 2026 guide on Emergency Assistance in New Jersey outlines how we streamline this process to provide help fast.
3. Emotional Counseling and Resilience
The trauma of displacement lasts long after a home is secured. We provide professional crisis counseling to help families reclaim their confidence and mental well-being. This is a vital component of our long-term success, as discussed in our piece on Why Crisis Counseling in New Jersey Will Change the Way You Handle a Family Emergency.
Meet the Leadership
Our success is driven by a dedicated board of directors who bring expertise from various sectors to ensure that every dollar invested is used for maximum impact. Under the leadership of Ananeika Gordon, our CEO and Founder, we have built a team that understands the unique needs of our community.
Our board includes visionaries like Shawn Jacobs, Stephania Monnay, Edward Gordon, Matthew Taylor, and Ananeika Gordon. Together, they lead a mission focused on Rebuilding Camden and Burlington through strategic community resilience.
Corporate Social Responsibility and Your Bottom Line
