Good Grief- counseling services for families who suddenly lose parents. Based out of Morristown
Sounds sad, but great name for a charity!
PALS/Joan Dancy Foundation. They do god’s work for people with ALS. As opposed to funding research and the like, they’re focused on taking care of people and giving them the fullest life while they’re still around. They handle van trips to doctor appointments, lend out walkers and wheelchairs, and will do caregiving so the family can get a break.
From Morris County, but contribute to two maritime ones:
The Bayshore Center at Bivalve down in Cumberland County, which aims to preserve the history of the area’s oystering industry as well as maintain and sail the AJ Meerwald, a 1928 oyster schooner that is now used for educational excursions as well as recreational ones.
Also members of the American Littoral Society based in Sandy Hook, which is a conservation and advocacy group aimed at preserving marine life along the coast.
