FAIR LAWN, NJ — The Columbia Bank Foundation recently sponsored the Boys & Girls Club of New Jersey’s Youth of the Year Gala. For nearly 70 years, the gala has honored and celebrated teens who have displayed outstanding leadership, service, academic excellence and dedication to living a healthy lifestyle. The teens participate in local, state and regional events before finalists advance to Washington, D.C., and a winner is named. This year’s New Jersey “Youth of the Year” was 16-year-old Nzingha Rothmiller.

“We are proud to support the Youth of the Year Gala and its efforts to recognize outstanding teens,” Columbia Bank President and CEO Thomas J. Kemly said. “We are confident all participants have a bright future ahead.”
