Our Mission
“The Mission of The Frank Edward Piccolo Foundation is to actively serve the family structure by raising and distributing funds in order to enhance the quality of life for families, or individual family members, so that they may have a better today and a brighter future.”
Formed in 2007 by Jim Piccolo, The Frank Edward Piccolo Foundation is named for Piccolo’s father who passed away in 1987 after a brief battle with cancer. The foundation focuses on making a difference in the lives of others, and has supported a variety of causes since its inception. In the spirit of “giving back” and “paying forward” one’s blessings, President Jim Piccolo states “I encourage each person to dream not just about the things they want and the person they want to become, but about the things each of them can do to positively impact others.” Are you doing your part? Get involved today!
On this Web site, you’ll find up-to-date information on the foundation’s exciting developments and what you and/or your family can do to make a difference.
