Lightbridge Academy in East Brunswick, New Jersey Uses Grand Opening Event to Support the Zeppole Guys

After an explosion destroyed a local family business, the Zeppole Guys, Lightbridge Academy’s East Brunswick location used its grand opening event on October 24 to help the family raise funds, according to a recent CentralJersey.com article. Center Director Regina Silverii teamed up with the Zeppole Guys and donated a $2,000 grant on behalf of the academy while also raising an additional $976 at the event.

“We are overwhelmed with joy by the support and financial assistance we received from Lightbridge Academy,” Zeppolle Guys co-owner Joseph Squillante told CentralJersey.com “We were totally shocked when we got the call that Lightbridge Academy was stepping up to help out. After reading up on Lightbridge’s co-founder, Guy Falzarano, it’s clear that Lightbridge is committed to helping the local community.”

“My family is grateful that Guy has been generous enough to help us out after this devastating explosion,” Squillante continued.

“Lightbridge Academy was built on a foundation of family values,” Silverii told CentralJersey.com. “It is a place where owners, parents, children, staff, as well as the community, come together as a family to create a trusted ‘Circle of Care.’ There really is no better way to show that you are a company that truly cares than to demonstrate it through your actions.”

The event also included a petting zoo and COVID-safe games.
