President's Message
Saluti e benvenuti alla Foundazione Patrimonio Italiano! (Greetings and welcome to the Italian Heritage Foundation!)
I am excited to be elected President of this noble organization that celebrates our Italian culture while giving back to the Greater Rochester community by removing barriers to a better education through our scholarship program.
It is a great honor to work alongside such a dedicated group of local business and community leaders who share a common goal of furthering the mission set forth by our organization’s founders over sixty-two years ago.
How we go about raising funds for scholarship is as important as the monies that we donate. Consistent with our Italian heritage, our Foundation’s Board members and supporters genuinely embrace gathering with friends and family to enjoy good meals, share plenty of laughter, make new friends and build camaraderie. We take great pride in our heritage and hope you will join us (regardless of your nationality!) in the enjoyment of our festivities while contributing to a very worthy cause.
Thank you all for your continued support, and we look forward to seeing you at one or more of our events!
Un salute e a presto,
Sincerely,
Philip L. Pecora
