Thank you for visiting my fundraising page!

I have had a six year love affair with the peloton and have always threatened to purchase a bike to get on the road.  The tragic passing of FF Dave Brown has finally forced me to take the plunge. I did this ride alongside Dave and others in 2022 on a bike not meant for it.   I am excited to participate in the 39th Annual The Ben to the Shore on Sunday, July 26, 2026, which supports the Families Behind the Badge Children's Foundation in his honor.

I am proud to take this ride along side my brothers and sisters of the Bayonne Police and Fire Departments. Matthew 17:4: “…it is good for us to be here.” 

The Families Behind the Badge Children’s Foundation (FBBCF) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit committed to improving the lives of children in the Greater Philadelphia and South Jersey area. We achieve this by providing necessary financial relief for the families of fallen or critically injured first responders (police officers, firefighters, EMTs); cultivating positive relationships and interactions between police officers and the children in the communities they serve; and providing mental and emotional wellbeing resources to first responders and their families.
