Celebrating NJSFWC 60th Anniversary!
THE 1894 SOCIETY
The NJSFWC Headquarters Building, built with trading stamps, is located
on land leased from Rutgers University. The Federation’s lease with Rutgers sets the rental amount at a percentage of the value of the land. The value of land has increased.
The 1894 Society was initiated in 2002 in an effort to build a fund that will enable the NJSFWC to meet any increase that may be assessed by Rutgers. Click on the PDF to learn more.
