The Warren Township Honorary P.B.A. Local 235 is a non-profit organization dedicated to supporting local schools, community events, and charitable causes. The organization contributes to the D.A.R.E. and Explorer programs, provides assistance to families of fallen and injured police officers, and works to foster a strong relationship with Warren Township residents as well as P.B.A. Locals across New Jersey.

“Today, the Warren Township Honorary P.B.A. received an exceptional show of support from Dr. Ryan Saadi of Tevogen, whose generosity will make a meaningful and lasting impact on our community.

This contribution reinforces a principle we emphasize often at the Warren Police Department, safeguarding our town is both a team-wide and town-wide responsibility. When community leaders step forward in this manner, it affirms the importance of our officers’ work and reminds us that Warren, and the people who call it home, are truly remarkable.

The funds will be used to acquire critical equipment that enhances the safety of our officers and residents and strengthens the services we provide every day. In a profession where the stakes are high and challenges continue to evolve, this level of support ensures we remain prepared and protected.

We are deeply grateful to Dr. Saadi and Tevogen for their confidence in our mission and for investing directly in the wellbeing of our department and the Warren community,” said Robert Ferreiro, Chief of Police, Township of Warren.

Sharing his thoughts on the donation, William Keane stated, “As someone who served the Warren community for 35 years, including nearly a decade as Chief of Police, I know how essential it is for law-enforcement agencies to have the tools and support required to keep residents safe. Dr. Saadi’s donation reflects his deep commitment to this town and to the officers who protect it.

Tevogen has spent the past year earning recognition for its disciplined execution, expanding footprint, and the significant multi-billion-dollar potential of its long-term vision. What strikes me most is that this ambition has always been matched by a sense of responsibility to the communities we serve. Today’s contribution reflects that same principle of building for the future while ensuring that those on the front lines have what they need right now.

I’m proud to be part of an organization whose leadership invests not only in transformative science and technology, but also in the safety and wellbeing of the place we call home.”

The donation was conducted in accordance with SEC Rule 144 and Dr. Saadi will not receive any proceeds from the disposal of the securities.
