About the fund...
The family and friends of Elissa and Tommy Betterbid have come together to help raise money for expenses incurred as a result of a terrible car accident to Elissa.
On August 26, 2013, our good friend, Elissa was in a car accident leaving our community in Packanack Lake, Wayne, NJ and heading to her new home in Beacon, NJ. She was hit by a tractor trailer rig head on and sustained injuries of two broken legs, hip/shoulder and other injuries.
The driver was intoxicated and drove across the median hitting Elissa head on.....
Elissa and Tommy have contributed so much to our community and have been wonderful friends to many of us. They were in the process of setting up a new home, getting their three children, Robert, Henry and Sally, set up in new schools and starting a new life.
As a result of this devastating event in their lives, we have organized a collection on this website as well as various fundraisers that will be periodically updated on this site.
Please keep Elissa and her family in your thoughts and prayers for a full recovery!
