SAX LLP Announces 13th Annual 4 MILER

SAX Invites Participants to Join the Race to $1 Million Raised for St. Joseph's Children's Hospital's Child Life Department.

(SAX LLP)
Sax LLP will host its 13th annual 4 MILER run/walk event to raise money for St. Joseph’s Children’s Hospital in Paterson, NJ on Saturday, September 21, 2024. The fundraising event will take place at SAX LLP’s state-of-the-art headquarters at 389 Interpace Parkway Suite 3, Parsippany, NJ.

Last year, nearly 400 participants, 20 volunteers, 34 sponsors, and 225 donors came together to participate, raising over $125,000 to benefit the Child Life Department of St. Joseph’s Children’s Hospital – the largest amount raised in the history of the event – bringing the total to $925,000 raised since the event’s inception. SAX is racing to its goal of raising $1 million for St. Joseph’s Health with this year’s race.

As an avid supporter of St. Joseph’s Children’s Hospital, Sax LLP donates 100% of the funds raised from this event directly to St. Joseph’s Children’s Hospital’s Child Life Department, which provides high-impact therapies to help pediatric patients cope with the adverse effects of treatment and hospitalization. Soley funded by outside support, the department offers quality-of-life therapies like art, animal-assisted and horticultural therapy, which are shown to be highly impactful in mitigating the adverse effects of hospitalization, especially among patients with chronic, life-threatening or terminal illness. SAX LLP’s philanthropic arm, The SAX Charitable Foundation, absorbs all event costs so that 100% of funds raised go directly to benefit the Child Life Department. Mainly driven by the annual 4 MILER, SAX LLP is the biggest sole contributor to the Child Life Department.

“Our 4 Miler event is cherished by our employees, and strongly supported by our clients and professional partners. It always feels so great for us to come together for St. Joseph’s Child Life Department, which does so much for their pediatric patients on so little,” said Joseph Damiano, SAX CEO and Managing Partner. “2024 will mark a banner year for our event as we work to cross the finish line in bringing the total raised for the Children’s Hospital over $1 million.”
