In August of 2024, the District of New Jersey’s Board of Judges approved the ​opening of a food pantry named in honor of ​Judge Salas’s son, Daniel Anderl. This pantry, ​known as “Danny’s Pantry,” was established in remembrance ​of the fourth anniversary of Daniel’s tragic death. To transform ​sorrow into positivity, the District Court established this ​pantry to assist the many families in need who come through ​the court doors.

Participants in the Pretrial Opportunity ​Program and ReNew Program and others served by this court, ​may obtain food staples donated to the pantry by the federal ​court family and friends. The pantry helps alleviate the burdens faced by ​many poverty-stricken families and individuals while, connecting ​the Court to the surrounding community.
