The funds given to Giants of Generosity came from a portion of the proceeds raised at the Rotary Club's 2nd annual Zombie Run held last month in Bergenfield.

GOG has helped more than 500 individuals and families by providing financial assistance, connections to other vitally needed resources, and moral support.

The organization recently had an elevator installed for a wheelchair-bound man who could not easily get out of his house to receive life-saving treatments and provided financial assistance for a family suffering terminal illness and long-term unemployment.
