The Winter Warm-Up - January 31, 2026
Thank you to all who joined us for this “elevated casual” night out in town at the inaugural Winter Warm-Up event on Saturday, January 31, at Tomasello Winery in Hammonton. Food, wine, drinks, music, dancing, cigars, and raffle prizes made for a fun evening that raised over $6,000 for learning projects and initiatives in the Hammonton School District.
We could not have been successful without the support of our sponsors!
ShopRite Gift Card Raffle: Spring/Summer 2026
The Hammonton Education Foundation was proud to present its “School’s Out, Stock Up” Raffle, giving one lucky winner the chance to take home a $1,000 ShopRite gift card just in time for summer.
As grocery prices continue to rise and families prepared to feed a busy household throughout the season, the raffle offered a meaningful opportunity to help ease some of those costs while also giving back to our schools.
Every ticket purchased helped support educational programs, classroom initiatives, student opportunities, and innovative projects throughout the Hammonton School District. The community’s support directly benefited our students and staff while helping the HEF continue its mission of enhancing educational experiences across the district.
Tickets were available through HEF board members, and the winning ticket was drawn on June 13. Thank you to everyone who participated, supported local education, and helped make the raffle a success!
