The DJ Romano Fund was created in memory of Officer DJ Romano, a beloved Town of Newburgh Police Officer who tragically passed away in a snowmobile accident. To honor his legacy, a dedicated team of law enforcement officers and community members came together to build a fund that would give back to the community DJ loved so much.
Steering Committee
- Jason Monti — Town of Newburgh PD
- Frank Pierri — New Windsor PD
- Jen Ellis — Former Town of Newburgh PD
- Jimmy Romano — NYPD
- Marc Corrado
- Greg Rowe
The mission of the DJ Romano Fund is twofold: to support local youth sports—such as the Newburgh Free Academy Football Program and Newburgh Pee Wee Teams—and to help families in need within the community.
