Edison torch run fundraising spotlight: students, sponsors and local support

Edison Township Law Enforcement Torch Run Ceremony · August 12, 2026

Summary

Organizers credited student fundraisers and local sponsors for the event’s fundraising success; students Ryan and Ella Carter were singled out for raising more than $1,500 this year and longstanding sponsors were thanked, though some numeric references in the transcript were ambiguous.

Hosts highlighted student fundraising and corporate sponsors as key elements of the torch run’s impact. Deputy Chief Dudash said Ryan and Ella Carter "combined to raise over $1,500 and over the past 3 years over $5,000," praising youth involvement and continued community giving.

Organizers also acknowledged sponsors including UPS, Collier and CarMax and thanked Jersey Mike’s for major donations. A figure mentioned in the transcript — "over 10,000,000 in New Jersey and over 40,000,000" — was not specified further in context (the transcript did not make clear whether these numbers referred to dollars, sandwiches, or another metric), so the article reports that the amount and unit were not specified in the remarks.
