HANOVER — As many in our community are aware, Firefighter Jim Danus of the Whippany Fire Company was critically injured during a training drill on May 6, 2025. Jim, a dedicated volunteer firefighter since April 2021, also serves with the Florham Park First Aid Squad and previously with the Morris Township Fire Department. He is currently receiving care at Morristown Medical Center and faces a long road ahead in rehabilitation.
In the wake of this tragic accident, Jim’s wife Tracey, and their children Jacob, Jessica, and Josh, are now navigating life without Jim at home, managing household responsibilities and unexpected expenses.
With the family’s blessing, fellow firefighters have launched a GoFundMe campaign to help alleviate the financial burden during this incredibly challenging time. Any support you can offer—whether by donating or sharing the fundraiser—will make a meaningful difference. Click here to donate.
Let’s come together as a community to support one of our own. Jim has dedicated countless hours to serving and protecting others. Now, it’s our turn to support him and his family.
