Event Info
We can’t wait to see you at this year’s 5K Celebration of Life events. We’re bringing together families of organ and tissue donors, transplant recipients, volunteers, community groups and corporate and hospital partners… to honor, to remember, and to give hope!
Join us and take a walk around the event village—grab a snack, visit with NJ Sharing Network staff and sponsors, take pictures with your family and friends at our photo booth and be inspired during the program before making your way to the start line for the USATF Certified Race and Walk.
