Pulitzer Prize-Winning Author to be Featured at 119th Annual Conference

 

We're excited to announce that Pulitzer Prize-winning Biographer and Journalist Kai Bird will be joining our dynamic line-up of speakers at our 119th Annual Conference in Nashville from April 2-4. 

 

Bird won the Pulitzer Prize for biography in 2006 for American Prometheus: The Triumph and Tragedy of J. Robert Oppenheimer (co-authored with Martin J. Sherwin). At the conference, he will use this book to discuss the contemporary challenges we face in the 21st Century, including how to integrate artificial intelligence into our social fabric.

FoodBank Love & Compassion posts-2

Day of Love & Compassion Set for Valentine's Day

NJBankers and our member banks are teaming up for a statewide Day of Love & Compassion on February 14. We'll be volunteering at food banks across the state as part of our 1 Million Meals Campaign benefiting the Community FoodBank of New Jersey.

A special thank you to the banks joining us in our volunteer efforts: Spencer Savings Bank, Manasquan Bank, Blue Foundry Bank, OceanFirst Bank, First Bank, and Columbia Bank. 

Our goal is to raise one million meals to support local children, families and seniors facing food insecurity - and we’re almost 90% of the way there! Please help us bring our campaign home strong. Learn the different ways you can support the campaign here.
