TEAM JERRY
To Honor. To Remember. To Give Hope.
5K Celebration of Life raises awareness about the importance of organ & tissue donation and will help save lives. We need your support!
Thank you for visiting “Team Jerry” fundraising page for the NJ Sharing Network's annual 5K walk. Join me in memory of my beloved son and honoring those who gave, paying tribute to those who received, offering hope for those who continue to wait, and remembering the lives lost while waiting. Please do whatever you can to help in memory of my son Jerry who saved several lives.
Jerry’s life was cut short in April 2012. It was one day before his 25th birthday. Jerry was a gentle and loving soul. He was a very intelligent, witty, free-spirited, friendly and healthy young man. Jerry’s life with us was short he accomplished great things. Not many people in their lifetime have the opportunity to save another person’s life. Jerry did better than that, he saved several lives. The GIFT Jerry gave before he left us is precious and priceless. THE GIFT OF LIFE.
Thank you so much for your support. Over 100,000 people in the United States are waiting for a life-saving transplant and 4,000 live right here in New Jersey. Tens of thousands more need life-enhancing tissue or cornea transplants each year. One organ and tissue donor can save 8 lives and enhance the lives of over 75 others. But the waiting list is long and for many, organ and tissue donation can mean the difference between life and death. Your support brings us one step closer to providing the greatest gift of all… the gift of life.
Thank you for joining us to honor those who gave, pay tribute to those who received, offer hope to those who continue to wait, and remember the lives lost while waiting for the gift of life.
