It is official!!!
Darts for Dreams is set for April 27th, 2024
Let's see if we can beat the $91,000 from DfD 18.
The event will be at a new location - Bordentown Elks Lodge 2085 -- Where is that?
This year, we start on a journey with a new host. We're super excited to get connected with the Bordentown Elks. The facility is very large and gives us plenty of space to work in. There's ample parking and of course a bar. We're still working out some details for food and other things as we gear up for April. We're also very excited to find ways to connect with and engage over 1000 members at the Elks, sharing our DfD success story with them and maybe finding some new players, attendees, sponsors or participants at the event.
Another very exciting bit of news is where we are. The event in 2023 raised over $91,000!!!! Our 18 year total is now over $725,000!!! Well, if you do the math, three more years (so 2025?!?!?) it's possible that could cross the MILLION DOLLAR threshhold. For an event that raised just $5,800 the first year, this is just unbelievable. There are so many people who've participated in so many ways over the years and everyone deserves a THANK YOU!!!
Darts for Dreams is an annual event hosted by the Greater Trenton Dart League to benefit Make-A-Wish New Jersey. Since 2006, the GTDL and it's friends, sponsors, supporters and attendees have collected over $725,000, with every single dollar raised going to MAWNJ to support wish granting for children with critical illnesses in Central New Jersey. To date, the event has sponsored almost 70 wishes!!! We truly believe in the "Power of a Wish" and hope you do too. Everyone reading this probably knows someone whose lives have been touched by MAWNJ. Consider helping us out with a donation or merchandise to raffle.
Thank you!!!
