World Day of Remembrance (11.17.2019)

The DeMott family made a special trip to New Jersey this year for our annual Jersey walk. However, instead of having a ceremonial walk or 5K, we decided to host a fun day in Van Saun Park in Paramus where family and friends could gather, catch up, and spend the afternoon together. We had a great day as over 100 people came to spend the day with us and learn more about the foundation and how we are working to share our message across the country.

We want to thank Debbie Winters, Nicole Gonzalo, Darryl DeMott and their families for putting months of hard work and dedication into making this day absolutely amazing! We would also like to thank Josh from Outback Steakhouse in Rochelle Park for proving us with all of the amazing food, as well as The Fireplace, Paramus Police Department, and Generations Comfort Food and Catering in Rochelle Park for supporting this event.

This day has meant so much to us because it was our family’s way of personally saying THANK YOU to everyone that has supported our family and this foundation over the last 4 years. Check out the photos below! Thank you to everyone that came out and made this day so special! We look forward to seeing everyone again next year!

We kicked off 2019 with our biggest event of the year- our 3rd Annual Dinner Banquet! We had 200 people join us in the Pegasus Ballroom on the UCF campus to honor some incredible individuals and celebrate all that we have accomplished in the last year. This year's dinner was truly special as we welcomed back Trooper Steve Montiero from WKMG News 6 as our evening's MC, and shared some exciting news with our audience as we announced the launch of our new victim services program! Our guests also got to see a surprise presentation from our President and founder, Bill. It was an unforgettable evening that we hope left everyone feeling inspired, recharged, and motivated to #ChangeTheWorld. Thank you to everyone that spent the evening with us; we can't wait to see you all again next year!

We would like to thank all of our wonderful volunteers for their time and efforts in helping make this evening such a phenomenal success! We would also like to thank our wonderful photographers Sherri Claudio and Rebecca Cleary for capturing such amazing photos throughout the evening!
