            Mayor Mark A. Smith said, “I would like to thank Ashley Furniture HomeStores of Central New Jersey for its generosity to children here in Bayonne.  I would also like to thank the BEOF for working closely with Ashley to make A Hope 2 Dream a reality for local families. This kind of program can make a big difference in the lives of children.”  Quintela said, “During the past year, the BEOF has looked for new ways to help people in need.  The HomeStore’s A Hope 2 Dream is a great new example of generosity in this area.   The BEOF is very grateful that Ashley has joined the growing list of businesses partnering with the BEOF to improve the quality of life for Bayonne residents.”
