Spotlight: From Project SEARCH to Nine Years Strong: William’s Story

Meet William, one of our Employees of the Month! This Project SEARCH graduate is celebrating nine years with NJFH, bringing pride, warmth, and dependability to our janitorial team every day.

William is a proud graduate of our Project SEARCH program, and his journey since then is a true testament to what dedication, heart, and a positive spirit can accomplish. Every day, he heads out with his supervisor as part of our cleaning crew, putting his janitorial skills to work with real pride and professionalism.

Porters are the unsung heroes of any organization, keeping our spaces clean, safe, and welcoming for everyone who walks through our doors. William takes that role to heart and brings warmth and enthusiasm to it every day. He greets everyone with a cheerful hello, helps without hesitation, and is unfailingly respectful and dependable.

This past June, William celebrated his ninth work anniversary with NJFH! He usually keeps busy at one of our Janitorial Services sites, but as luck would have it, he was at our Hackensack Program on June 26 during Morgan Stanley’s Give Back Day. That meant our CEO, Dinorah D’Auria, got to congratulate him in person, and of course they made time for a photo together.

We are so thankful for everything William does, especially his work at Caven Point Military Base, one of our AbilityOne federal contracts through SourceAmerica. William embodies the values of North Jersey Friendship House in every sense, and he is proof of what is possible on the right job path. We are so happy to be part of your journey, William!
