“Glen Ridge teacher delivers garments to charitable organizations

Glen Ridge resident Christine Heinicke recently delivered garments made by her students to charitable organizations.

James Caldwell High School students who took Heinicke’s clothing classes knitted, crocheted and sewed items for donation to two organizations. First, a dozen hand-knitted and crocheted hats for children were shipped to a pediatric cancer clinic in Merida, Mexico. Later, Newark’s New Community Corporation received five pajama bottoms, three pencil skirts, one sleeveless shift dress and a rag doll.

Heinicke wanted to thank all of the students who participated in this project during the 20162017 academic year: Sydney Ash, Emily Blankenship, Ashleigh Bryan, Georgia Burrows, Brooke Butler, Gia Catrambone, Kelly Chang, Lauren Conahan, Callahan Faherty, Julia Fernandez, Sarrah Garrison, Francesca Gerard, Tara Hyland, Riyad Khan, Alexandra Mastricova, Samuel Merritt, Sandra Micheals, Kelly Norton, Michelle Palone, Diana Pikalova, Travis Ronnie, Samantha Roughgarden, Maryam Seddiki, Madeleine Sloan, Alison Vinick, Mina Yi and Joy Yoon.
