History

Founded in 2001, The Galesi Family Foundation seeks to honor the memories of John and MaryLou Galesi, who practiced a life-long ethic of giving back.

They believed in the value of hard work, and the importance of lending a hand to those in need. Whether it was dressing up as Mrs. and Mr. Claus on Christmas mornings, to give out presents to underpriviledged children, or fund raising for community projects, John and MaryLou understood that their good fortune was a blessing to be shared with others.

They passed these values of philanthropy and personal engagement on to their family. Today their children, their nieces and nephews, strive to honor their memory by supporting organizations that commit themselves to making a positive difference in the world.
