SAVE THE DATE Friday, May 17th: Join us for the
Wild West Morris Jamboree!
Yee-haw! Put on your cowboy boots, round up a babysitter, and help us put the WILD WEST in West Morris!
The Wild West Morris Jamboree is coming to town, and you don’t want to miss it.
The West Morris Junior Women’s Club warmly invites you to help us make our amazing communities stronger at our largest fundraiser of the year.
Friday, May 17, 2024
6:30pm - 10:30pm
The Lamplighter
190 W Main St, Chester, NJ 07930
Live country music, mouth-watering BBQ, raffles and auctions, and a fun night out for a good cause, all taking place in one of the oldest buildings in Chester, NJ.
This fundraiser helps our local nonprofit serve families, small businesses, and schools across the West Morris community all year long.
Funds raised beyond our operating costs will be donated to a charity of great significance to our members, the Brooke Healey Foundation, which provides direct support to families who have children diagnosed with pediatric cancer. Two of our members (one active and one alumnus) have lost loved ones to this cruel diagnosis.
The funds we raise will make daily life just a little bit smoother for families who are fighting this battle right now. The Brooke Healey Foundation also supports targeted research, since oncologists believe finding a cure for DIPG may lead to a “home run cure” for all cancers.
