TAPinto Parsippany was founded to provide residents of Parsippany-Troy Hills with a trusted, comprehensive source for local news and community updates. Owner and publisher Laura Ali recognized a need for a platform where public school events, high school sports, township activities, and everyday local stories could be reported accurately and accessibly. With a deep-rooted passion for community service, Laura brings her experience as a former President and District Cabinet President of the PTO for the School District of the Chathams, along with her ongoing volunteer work in the Morris County Republican Committee and the NJ State Republican Party, to her stewardship of the site. APinto Parsippany has become more than a news outlet—it is a hub for the community, highlighting local achievements, fostering civic engagement, and connecting residents with events and resources that matter. As part of the larger TAPinto network, the site operates on a revenue model that blends digital advertising, native content, and sponsorship opportunities, ensuring the publication remains free and accessible to all residents. Laura’s dedication to objective, dependable reporting ensures TAPinto Parsippany continues to be a valued resource for the town and surrounding neighborhoods.
