New Jersey Councils Honored With State Jefferson Awards
By Brett Davis
New Jersey’s Navy League councils were named as honorees for the 2020 New Jersey Jefferson Awards.
The councils as a whole were nominated in 2019, but the 2020 ceremony was postponed until recently due to COVID-19 restrictions. The New Jersey councils were named as honorees under the “Service to the Military” category.
The Jefferson Awards were begun in 1972 by Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, Sen. Robert Taft of Ohio and entrepreneur Sam Beard to recognize top nonprofit groups and individuals.
