The 2024 lager run will take place on June 9th 2024!
Please consider being a Fitzgerald's 1928 Lager Run Family Sponsor.
To those not familiar with the GRCF, its primary mission is to raise funds to assist GR residents seeking help from accredited local service organizations. We do an annual fundraising campaign, and our biggest fundraiser event for several years has been the spring Fitzgerald’s 1928 Lager Run, the 5-K race throughout the town with a festive finish at Hurrell Field. As an all-volunteer group with minimal expenses other than Lager Run-related costs, virtually all funds raised go right to the social service programs where they are needed most.
Please help us continue to support organizations that need aid to enable them to continue to support our residents. Most recently, the GRCF has provided funds to the Human Needs Food Pantry, Neighbor to Neighbor Network (direct financial and other assistance), Chrill Care (meals for the homebound), the ARC (programs for individuals with disabilities), the local YMCA, and the GR Volunteer Ambulance Squad. The GRCF also offset the cost of the weekly grocery jitney service for seniors, helped to reinstate/improve the Benson Street Garden (vegetables harvested and donated to the Human Needs Food Pantry), and provided funds for food gift cards and other essentials for residents. We welcome grant applications from any accredited local agencies that provide services to GR residents.
We also welcome anyone who would like to volunteer with the GRCF.
Please help us help our Glen Ridge neighbors. Donations in any amount to the GRCF, a tax-exempt 501C(3) organization, are fully tax-deductible and employer-matchable.
