From the Organizer
We’re excited to announce that the 15th Annual SAX 4 MILER is set for Saturday, September 19, 2026 at our Parsippany, NJ headquarters
This annual walk/run event brings together our clients, colleagues, friends, and families to support a cause close to our hearts: the St. Joseph’s Children’s Hospital in Paterson, NJ.
Because of you, the SAX 4 Miler has become more than a race. It has become a lasting source of support for the children and families served by St. Joseph’s Children’s Hospital. After 15 years and more than $1,000,000 raised for the Child Life Department, the success of the SAX 4 Miler has created an opportunity to expand our impact across St. Joseph’s Children’s Hospital as a whole.
This year, funds raised will help address areas of need across specialized programs and centers of excellence that provide critical care, comfort, and support to children and families.
These programs include:
• The Binder Autism Center
• The Center for Pediatric Feeding & Swallowing
• Our World: The Palestroni Center for Genetic Conditions
• The Santo LoConte Child Advocacy Center
• The Valerie Fund Center for Pediatric Oncology and Hematology
• CenteringParenting Program
• Regional Craniofacial Center
• Cystic Fibrosis Center
• HealthySteps Pediatric Program
Every mile makes a difference in a child’s life—and we can’t wait to see you at the starting line.
