Blair Hornstine’s Summary

In addition to her dedication to continued learning despite the obstacles presented by her health issues, Blair Hornstine has also proven her commitment to community service. Blair Hornstine is the Co-founder of MAGIC (Moorestown Alliance for Goodwill and Interest in the Community). Blair and her brother formed MAGIC to help meet the needs they perceived within their own community. Although MAGIC was specifically formed by the brother and sister pair to address issues related to the elderly, the disabled, the underprivileged, and young women, few individuals in the Hornstines’ community went unaffected by the work of the young volunteers.

Between 1994 and 2003, the Moorestown Alliance for Goodwill and Interest in the Community led by Blair Hornstine raised public awareness regarding issues like hunger and illiteracy. MAGIC is also responsible for the organization and implementation of a number of local revitalization and beautification projects, such as the removal of graffiti from buildings. MAGIC regularly assisted in the efforts of other community organizations in the building of playgrounds, the planting of trees and flowers, and the implementation of computer literacy programs.

At the start of 2000, MAGIC aligned itself with The Smile Train, a non-profit organization dedicated to correcting the cleft lips and palates of young girls in the People’s Republic of China. From 2000 to 2004, the Moorestown Alliance for Goodwill and Interest in the Community led by Blair Hornstine raised enough money for 16 cleft operations, and Blair Hornstine was even invited to attend a conference in the People’s Republic of China dedicated to the issues surrounding young Chinese girls.
