“I want to congratulate Reva Foster on her retirement. She spent decades helping older adults and veterans in Willingboro Township.”
Official Congressional Record

Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize and congratulate Reva Foster on her retirement from Willingboro Township, where she served as director of the senior citizen center, as well as executive director of the Department of Aging and Veterans Affairs, and community affairs. After joining Willingboro Township in 1993, she became a fierce advocate for seniors and veterans in the region. Under her leadership, the town’s senior services program grew into a highly respected, State- recognized resource that provided a welcoming community for generations of residents. Her responsibility expanded to include the township’s community affairs and Veterans affairs departments where she continued to champion programs that have improved the quality of life for Willingboro residents. As a reflection of her achievements, in 2020, the senior citizen center was renamed the Reva Foster Senior Center, and in 2024 she was inducted into New Jersey Hall of Fame. Mr. Speaker, I congratulate Reva and thank her for her career of tireless advocacy and service.
