Registration rates go up on April 15th ~ our goal is to raise _at least _$100K.



100% of the proceeds go to Danny's Pantry!



In August of 2024, the District of New Jerseys Board of Judges approved the opening of a food pantry named in honor of Judge Salass son, Daniel Anderl. This pantry, known as Dannys Pantry, was established in remembrance of the fourth anniversary of Daniels tragic death. To transform sorrow into positivity, the District Court established this pantry to assist the many families in need who come through the court doors. Participants in the Pretrial Opportunity Program and ReNew Program and others served by this court, may obtain food staples donated to the pantry by the federal court family and friends. The pantry helps alleviate the burdens faced by many poverty-stricken families and individuals while, connecting the Court to the surrounding community.



It warms Dannys parents' hearts to know that the District Court is uplifting the community it serves by spreading love and light.



Runners and walkers of all levels are welcome however, only Daniel's Butterflies are allowed at the park therefore, we ask that all furry loved ones stay home.



There will be plenty of parking with direct access to the registration area and the park. Only clear small bags allowed and subject to inspection.



Hate is Heavy, LOVE IS LIGHT!
