Subject: Official Notice of Nonprofit Dissolution

Dear Friends, Volunteers, Supporters, and Community Members,

With deep gratitude and reflection, I write to share that Love More Judge Less permanently closed on June 6, 2025 and officially  dissolved on June 17, 2025.

For years, this organization stood as a safe haven, a voice, a movement, and none of it would have been possible without you. Together, we built something meaningful. Something rooted in love, in resilience, and in the belief that change begins with community.

Though the doors have closed, the mission lives on in the hearts of those we served, and in every conversation, action, and connection that grew from this work. The memories and momentum are not lost, they’ve simply taken new form.

All remaining assets have been responsibly distributed to like-minded causes that reflect the spirit and mission we carried.

As part of this closure, the organization’s website and all social media accounts have also been removed. While those platforms are no longer active, the impact they carried remains.

All those years we said “we are here for you”, we meant every word. Thank you for letting us show up for you.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you. I’m filled with gratitude for every donation, every shared story, every volunteer hour, and every bit of belief you had in this mission. What I created was fueled by your support, and it made a lasting impact. That legacy lives on in every life it touched.

With love and appreciation,

Vicki Freund

The Final Farewell

After 24 meaningful years of community, connection, and impact, Love More Judge Less,the first and only self-injury support & resource center, closed   its doors on Friday, June 6 — with one final evening to gather, reflect, and celebrate. It felt fitting to say goodbye during Boonton Main Street’s First Friday, a night known for heart and community.

For over 2 decades, Love More Judge Less has stood for more than its name — it’s been a safe space, a support system, and a movement built on compassion and courage. We’re closing this chapter with deep gratitude, quiet pride, and much love.

While Love More Judge Less is coming to a close, I’m proud to carry its spirit forward; as the founder of Love More Judge Less,, I am stepping into a different kind of story. Earlier this year, I created a new business: Imperfect Perfections. It will officially launch in August,  taking shape in the same space at 1017 Main Street. This new small woman owned business will offer a unique shopping experience featuring handpicked clothing and accessories with original designs that celebrate individuality and self-expression.  

Following the closing of Love More Judge Lesson June 6, the space will close for renovations.

Cheers! Vicki

For Immediate Release

Notice of Plan to Dissolve & Close

Legal Name: Launching Point

Alternate: Love More Judge Less

On behalf of Love More Judge Less, a 501(c)3 charitable organization, I am announcing the decision to permanently close after 24 years of service to the community. 

The decision to close, to dissolve Love More Judge Less was made following a careful evaluation of the mission, financial sustainability, and long-term impact goals.  In short, it was determined that we have fulfilled our goals and mission.

As founder, I am deeply grateful for the unconditional support over the years from friends and family. I'm  as equally thankful for the unwavering support & dedication of our donors and supporters, both past and present. Thank you to the volunteer crew, and much thanks to every person that attended a support group, recovery program, came out to a special event a  hangout, or just talk.  It is because of all of you who have made the  work for the last 24 years unforgettable.

After creating a self-help website, End All The Painin August 2001, that led to me helping teens and young adults at an outpatient program. When staff  informed me that there weren't any support groups or resources in the northeast, I was motivated to offer the first self-harm support group in NJ, which began in November of 2005. To make more of an impact, a year later in October of 2006, I established  Launching Point, the non-profit that is now known as Love More Judge Less.  

When we officially began as Launching Pointin 2006, we were established as a self-injury support & resource center. The tagline was "taking off to higher heights,aiming toward a healthy life".  When we moved to the storefront in February of 2021, I realized that we had accomplished that, however I continued to focus on the mission.

I focussed on the support groups, being a resource center, and getting items in the shop to serve as an ongoing fundraiser. When things would get rough financially, I would come up with creative  ways to raise funds.  It was a dream to have a storefront; to be visible for our cause, and also to display our merchandise.

In 8/2024, I had an idea to repurpose & design flannels, denim jackets, and hoodies. My thought was that it would be an additional way to raise funds to pay theexpenses, with the intention to use this line of clothing as an ongoing yet temporary fundraiser.   I named the clothing line Imperfect Perfections and created specific designs solely for Love More Judge Lesswith a label on the collar of each shirt stating "Designed exclusively for Love More Judge Less by Imperfect Perfections".  After festival season of 2024 was over, I realized that Love More Judge Less  evolved in such a way that has shifted from our mission and remembered what I felt when we moved into the storefront in 2021.  

I knew it was time to say farewell to this amazing non-profit that I built from the ground up. But, but...how  do you do that? How do you say goodbye to something that brought change, adventure, connection, life-changing support groups and recovery programs?  By having the wisdom in knowing when an organization has run its course and it's time to move on; organizations are not meant to last forever, some are raised  up for a time/season and must know when that season ends. With that said, I know the season, an incredible 24 years has come to an end.

With that knowledge, in January of 2025, I officially created Imperfect Perfections as my new business venture that I'm ecstatic about. Once the dissolution of the non-profit is complete, I will move forward with my new business.

As the dissolution process begins, Love More Judge Less will continue to be open and operate business as usual.  I will be working diligently to settle with creditors, finance, file all necessary paperwork, and distribute assets.

Please know that all funds received from fundraising and merchandise sales (in store & festivals) will all go directly to paying off all debt and final bills at Love More Judge Less.

Once all the legal requirements to dissolve are completed, I will file a Certificate of Dissolution to formally terminate the existence of this one-of-a-kind non-profit. 

After the certificate is received, I will announce dissolution with a formal statement and press release; this will take approximately 2-3 months. We will also have a time to reflect and celebrate with a farewell celebration at a venue which will also be announced when the dissolution is finalized.

It is with deep appreciation and love for all people that I can say it has been an honor, serving the community, an absolute life-changing experience and I know that even greater things are ahead.

Cheers,

Vicki
