With  yom tov approaching there are families who are struggling to make ends meet. Its time to help out the many yechidim who have no where to turn and are too embarrassed to ask. The sky rocketing tax hikes is only making matters worse, add the new gas tax expense, and those who have no busing losing pay at work for coming late. Its time to focus all our tzedakas on עניי עירך. Many of these families are not known to the Gaboei tzadaka and are on nobody's list. If you think of a neighbor a relative or friend that  are struggling or have been laid off recently, try to help them out in a bakovodiker way. Adopt your neighbor, adopt your friend, adopt your brother. Donate to local Lakewood Tzedakos below:

LSTA pushing to use BOE buses that are sitting empty

$
0
0
The LSTA who is responsible for all non public mandated busing is still short on routes for 7000 students both mandated and non mandated. There is a  shortage of buses and drivers which only make matters worse. The BOE purchased school buses HERE at double the market price with tax payer money approved by the state monitor. The BOE buses are only picking up mandated routes of the public school students which makes their rund take longer and kids are getting to public school 40 minutes to an hour late. Lakewood attorney Michael Inzelbuch is now preparing a lawsuit against those running the Lakewood school district demanding answers to why hundreds of mandated public school kids and thousands of mandated non public kids still do not have busing. 
The other big question at hand is, why is the township paying for courtesy busing for only public school kids and not private school kids?

The message is, get involved come down to the meetings and tell the officials you dont want anymore approvals.
 From the site:
 This movement belongs to all of the residents of Lakewood - reclaiming our town from the few who are making our quality of life go down as traffic and density get worse and worse.
Take Back Lakewood was started with the purpose of stopping the high density growth that is plaguing Lakewood now. We have a wonderful town and there are many homes available for sale in Lakewood and all of the neighboring towns." 
The website features current information regarding Lakewood township commitee meetings, planing and zoning board meeting schedules and agendas, informing the public ahead of time of what is going for approvals.

No room in shul, no seats for children

$
0

With all the talk about slowing growth and building, one area that needs more building is shuls. Over the Yomim Noraim shuls in various Lakewood developments were filled to capacity many did not have seating for children in some cases age limits were set. As the families grow shuls have to expand to accommodate the natural growth of their members. With all the talk about density, we must not let it get to a point that we oppose shuls, schools and much needed facilities for the community.

Pediatric affiliates of Lakewood will not issue the FluMist spray this year. The CDC recommended for this year to avoid using the nasal spray version of the flu annual vaccine. The CDC has recommended annual flu shots for everyone ages 6 months and older for the past six years. During the 2014-2015 season, federal health officials had recommended the nasal spray vaccine for young children. But an expert panel on vaccines said in June that the nasal spray, FluMist, used by millions, failed to protect children last year for the third year in a row and should not be used this coming flu season.
