South Mountain Reservation, Clipper Pavilion

Hi West Orange neighbors!​As a local resident and someone who received a sarcoma diagnosis last April, this cause is deeply personal to me. That is why I am so proud to serve as a volunteer committee member for the Sarcoma Foundation of America (SFA) as we prepare for our upcoming Race to Cure Sarcoma New Jersey.​On Sunday, October 11, 2026, we are bringing the community together right in our backyard at the South Mountain Reservation (Clipper Pavilion) for a 5K run/walk to raise crucial awareness and research funds for rare cancers.​Because rare cancers like sarcomas often get overlooked and patients frequently face delayed detection or limited treatment options, community support means everything. Whether you want to form a team, join mine ("Ness Deletes Angiosarcoma"), walk alongside us, or simply help spread the word, your presence makes a massive difference for local patients and families.​Date: Sunday, October 11, 2026 7:45 AM​Location: South Mountain Reservation, Clipper Pavilion (West Orange, NJ)​Learn More &amp; Register: https://www.trisignup.com/Race/NJ/WestOrange/RaceToCureSarcomaNewJ​Thank you so much, West Orange, for always showing up for one another. Let's make this an incredible day for rare cancer awareness!​Warmly,Vanessa AssanteVolunteer Committee, Race to Cure Sarcoma New Jersey

St. Francis of Assisi American National Catholic Church

Eight hundred years ago, St. Francis of Assisi embraced Sister Death and passed to eternal life. The founder of the Franciscan Order spent his life caring for the poor and promoting peace during a turbulent time, all while accompanied by his Franciscan brothers, sisters, and friends.
Centuries later, the Franciscan Community of Mercy is proud to carry on his legacy through humble service to the people of God.
As we commemorate the 800th anniversary of the Transitus of St. Francis on October 3, 2026, we join the Universal Church in her hope that St. Francis's message of peace will find "a profound echo in the Church and society today."
The Franciscan Community of Mercy will celebrate this special anniversary in New Jersey at St. Francis of Assisi ANCC in Glen Ridge, NJ, on Saturday,&nbsp;October 3rd, at 7:00 P.M.
Please join us!
May the Lord give you His peace!

Berkeley College’s 11th annual Women’s Entrepreneurship Week event brings together student entrepreneurs and women- and minority-led community businesses to learn, connect, and turn ideas into action. This year’s theme, “The Smart Hustle: AI for Small Business,” will share best practices on how aspiring entrepreneurs can use AI in ways that are practical, accessible, and immediately useful – not as another technology buzzword, but as a tool that can help small business owners save time, reduce costs, improve marketing and operations, and compete more effectively.
