Candi Carter
Candi has made an enormous impact on teens and their families by founding We’ve Got Friends, a nonprofit organization dedicated to providing inclusive social hangouts for teens with intellectual and developmental disabilities. What began as a vision for her son Emerson and others like him has grown into a lifeline for hundreds of teens and their families.

Maura Lockhart
Maura, a tireless longtime volunteer and trustee for the Human Needs Food Pantry in Montclair, oversees the Pantry’s “upstairs” clothing area where clients can access clothing and other household items for the entire family. Lockhart knows her clients by name and coordinates special giveaways and donations. Without her dedication, these essential “non-food” distributions would not happen.
