💛 Supporting a Metuchen Family

We wanted to share this GoFundMe for the family of Deepak, a Metuchen resident whose sudden passing has left his wife, Reshu, and daughter, Aadya, facing an incredibly difficult time.

Funds raised will help with funeral expenses and provide support as they navigate life without Deepak.

Please note: This is not an It Takes A Borough fundraiser, and donations made through GoFundMe are not tax-deductible.

Deepak resident of Metuchen, NJ was an amazing person whose sudden pass… Reshu Gupta needs your support for Support for Deepak's Family during this tough time

🎉 What a Day! Thank You! 🏁

The 18th Annual FUCE 5K was an incredible success, and it's all thanks to YOU — our runners, walkers, rollers, volunteers, sponsors, and supporters.

🌞 From the early morning setup to the final participant crossing the finish line, the energy, enthusiasm, and community spirit were unforgettable.

💙 Together, we honored the FUCE legacy, supported families in need, and demonstrated the incredible strength of our community.

📸 Stay tuned for race day photos! If you captured any great moments, tag us or share them in the comments.

👏 A special thank you to our amazing volunteers, sponsors, community partners, and public safety personnel. This event would not be possible without your dedication and support.

We are so grateful to everyone who joined us for another memorable Father's Day tradition in Metuchen.

Until next year... 💙
