Dear Friend,
Thanks to our many donors’ partnership with Westbridge Academy’s mission, on October 18, 2019, our annual fundraiser, “Hallo-win 8 at Casino Night,” was a great success! We are truly gratified by the increasing support that inspires all of us to pursue our mission to the fullest! Seeing the growing crowd inspires all of us to pursue our mission with even greater determination!

Our 2020 event is scheduled on Friday, October 30th, 2020. Please join us!!
Once again, the news headlines tell us how important it is to safeguard mental health in children and adolescents. We are proud that Westbridge Academy helps our students achieve more! Our program doesn’t just educate children… we treat the many issues that they face. The ripple effect of treatment is profound… all of us benefit from having healthy, capable and productive members of society.
The funds raised in connection with this year’s event will continue to drive our programs forward. Our clinical program has expanded to maximize our mental health treatment plans and we are positioned to open more classrooms as we have continued upgrading our facility in order to enhance student learning, particularly in the area of instructional technology. Your donation helps to offer the best academic and therapeutic programs available for our students and their families. As state and local government funding decreases, private donations are essential to close the gap.
Westbridge Academy is a private, 50l(c) 3 nonprofit special education school, approved by the NJ Department of Education, for children, adolescents and young adults from eight (8) counties between the ages of 5-21 with emotional/behavioral and learning disabilities. Our mission is vital in changing the life course of needy youngsters through a targeted program of therapeutic and educational interventions.
On behalf of the Event Committee, and the students and families that we serve, your partnership with our mission is invaluable. Your support and generosity make a real difference – to a child, to a family and to the community as a whole. Donations are accepted all year long on our website (see the Donate page) or sent directly to our mailing address (Westbridge Academy, 60 West Street, Bloomfield, NJ 07003).
Please receive our warmest wishes from all of us for a joyous holiday season and a happy and healthy new year!
With sincere appreciation,
Viviana Litovsky, Ph.D., M.A.
