🇺🇸🇮🇹 Happy Independence Day from the DSNY Columbia Association!

As we celebrate 250 years of American freedom (1776–2026), we proudly honor the generations of Italian Americans who helped build, serve, and strengthen this great nation.

Our heritage reminds us where we came from, while our service to New York City reflects the values that unite us all—faith, family, hard work, and community.

Today, we celebrate with immense pride in both the Stars and Stripes and the traditions passed down by our ancestors. Together, we remain American by birth or choice, and Italian by heart and heritage.

Proud Past. Strong Future. Strongest Together.

Happy 4th of July to our executive board, board members, families, and all the men and women of the Department of Sanitation.

The Executive Board, Board Members, and entire membership of the DSNY Columbia Association extend our heartfelt congratulations to First Deputy Commissioner Javier Lojan on your retirement.

Your leadership, guidance, and unwavering support over the years have meant so much to our organization. We have always admired the value you placed on what the Columbia Association stands for—service, tradition, brotherhood, and giving back to both our Department and the communities we proudly serve.

Your recognition and encouragement of the positive work being done by our members will never be forgotten. Thank you for always leading with integrity, respect, and a genuine appreciation for those who work to make a difference.

As you begin this new chapter, we wish you a retirement filled with health, happiness, and continued fulfillment. Thank you for your years of dedicated service and for the lasting impact you have made.

Congratulations, First Deputy Commissioner Lojan. We remain grateful for your friendship and support.

May your day be filled with pride, love, and time spent with those who matter most.

Happy Father’s Day from the DSNY Columbia Association. 💚🤍🇺🇸
