About the event

Starting Point 5K Run and 1Mile-Walk
The Starting Point of New Jersey 5K and 1-Mile Walk for Help and Hope returns on November 1st at Cooper River Park in Camden County, New Jersey, a powerful community event centered on hope, healing, and resilience.

This annual gathering brings people together for a cause that touches us all. Whether you’re running in honor of a loved one, walking your own path, or showing up to champion mental wellness and recovery, every step helps break stigma and build connection.

Business sponsorships available.

✔️ Gain valuable visibility among a purpose-driven, community-focused audience
✔️ Help ensure support services remain accessible to everyone—regardless of ability to pay
✔️ Support our mission to provide help and hope without barriers

Sponsorship opportunities are available at every level here https://bit.ly/45svXJ6. All proceeds directly benefit Starting Point, a nonprofit offering access to counseling, addiction recovery, support groups, and wellness services, because no one should face life’s challenges alone.

We will also be honoring two amazing community members, 𝗔𝗻𝗻𝗲 𝗗𝗼𝗻𝗻𝗲𝗹𝗹𝘆 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗦𝗲𝗮𝗻 𝗞𝗲𝗹𝗹𝘆.

𝗔𝗻𝗻𝗲 𝗗𝗼𝗻𝗻𝗲𝗹𝗹𝘆 has dedicated her career to public service, first as a firefighter and EMT, and now as a police officer with the Haddonfield Police Department for the past eight years. A lifelong athlete and youth jiu jitsu coach, Anne uses fitness, especially running and weightlifting, as a grounding force during life’s stressful moments. She completed her first 5K at age 11 and has since found movement to be one of her greatest sources of healing.

Anne’s unique role in her community allows her to support young people both on the mat and through moments of crisis. Her leadership, compassion, and unwavering commitment to emotional and physical wellness are exactly why Starting Point is proud to honor her at this year’s 5K.

𝗦𝗲𝗮𝗻 𝗞𝗲𝗹𝗹𝘆 has spent his life in service, as a firefighter, EMT, 9-1-1 dispatcher, and deputy emergency management coordinator. His public safety career began as a volunteer and evolved into decades of leadership across multiple roles. Alongside his dedication to the community, Sean found a passion for running and fitness, which played a vital role in his recovery after a heart attack in 2019 at age 44. Since then, he’s completed some Broad Street Runs and 5Ks.

His strength, humility, and continued advocacy for wellness make him a powerful example of resilience in action. We are honored to recognize Sean at this year’s 5K for his lifelong commitment to helping others and for showing us what it means to rise, adapt, and keep moving forward.

𝗕𝗶𝗯 𝗽𝗮𝗰𝗸𝗲𝘁 𝗽𝗶𝗰𝗸𝘂𝗽𝘀 𝘄𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗯𝗲 𝗮𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗛𝗮𝗱𝗱𝗼𝗻𝗳𝗶𝗲𝗹𝗱 𝗥𝘂𝗻𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗮𝗻𝘆 on 121 Kings Hwy E, Haddonfield, NJ on Thursday, Oct 30th, 3:00-7:00 PM
