RUMSON, NJ – When times are tough, heroes emerge. We all know someone who's making a difference right now as we live through unprecedented and changing times.

Here at Patch, we've launched an initiative to help recognize these heroes making a difference in their communities. Together with Ring, we're working to let all your neighbors know about these outstanding people and their stories.

This submission comes from Tinton Falls councilwoman and former Red Bank Regional High School principal Risa Clay, who nominated Rumson-Fair Haven senior Charlotte Stant:

Relationship to nominee: "Charlotte began working with me at the start of the pandemic, I am a local councilwoman."
