JACKSON, NJ – Sgt. Grochowski along with other officers and township employees collected a large abundance of clothing to benefit “Jake’s Got This” and their clothing drive fund. Jake’s Got This Foundation helps support children with Cerebral Palsy by donating gently used men, women, and children’s clothing as well as bedding and bath linens along with stuffed animals. Officers delivered the collection to Jake and his family and had a little fun with the family after by partaking in a silly string and water balloon fight organized by Sgt. Grochowski.

Jake’s Got this is a NJ based 501c charity created by family and friends of Jake. Jake was just 13 months old when he received the diagnosis and the family was told that Jake would never walk, never sit up independently and probably never talk. Jake’s family was not willing to accept this prognosis. Through years or early intervention and therapies, Jake TODAY is Talking and Sitting Up independently and is slowly beginning to walk more and more!!!
