Seasons come and go, but we're glad you're still here! To start off the fall, we sat down with Tom Lamberti, New Ground Advisory Board member and long-time supporter, talks about New Ground's journey to growth and expansion over the last 31 years he has been with the organization.

Stay tuned for the next interview being released next month! 👀

On behalf of all the homeless Veterans and families we serve, thank you so much to the True Partners Nonprofit Network and to all their amazing members. We are honored and deeply grateful to be the recipient of this year’s generous $10,000 donation.

This meaningful gift is more than a donation; it is an investment in hope, stability, and brighter futures for the homeless Veterans and families we serve. Because of this support, New Ground can continue strengthening our programs, expanding access to critical services, and helping more people move forward with dignity, care, and opportunity.

A heartfelt thank you to Donald Gelestino for opening the door to this incredible network, and to every True Partners member whose generosity and commitment make this work possible. We are grateful to be included in the True Partner’s annual Cocktails & Conversations event for so many years. Your partnership reminds us that when a community comes together, lives change. Thank you!

So many of our Veterans carry visible and invisible burdens long after their service ends. Some are facing homelessness right here in our own communities. Retired FDNY firefighter and Long Beach local Rob Carlo created the annual 24 on the Boards event in commemoration of 9/11 and all those we lost, to support Veterans and honor their service with action.

On September 7th at 6 PM, Rob completed his 8th annual 24 hour ride of the Long Beach Boardwalk on his custom beach cruiser to help homeless Veterans on Long Island find their way home. He is halfway to his $15,000 goal with 48 hours left leading up to the 25th anniversary of 9/11.

Every donation helps New Ground provide intensive social work and education services to break the cycle of homelessness. This is the kind of support that changes the course of someone’s life — not just for one night, but forever.

Let’s finish strong for Rob. Let’s finish strong for our Veterans. Donate here: newground.org/robsride2026fb

A special thank you to our sponsors that made this event possible. Without your generosity, 24 On The Boards would not be what it is today.
