Ms Felegi created and organizes Operation Warm Heart at Cranford’s First Presbyterian Church. The program provides overnight shelter and a wide array of services to homeless Union County residents.

The award was presented at Cranford’s 30th annual Martin Luther King Jr. Celebration and Recognition, which was held at the First Baptist Church of Cranford. Leaders from Cranford’s many religious denominations participated in the event.
