Philanthropy at Work
The Russell Berrie Foundation
A major contributor to Holy Name Hospital, the Russell Berrie Foundation donated $5 million to build the Russell and Angelica Berrie Pavilion and the Sister Patricia Lynch Regional Cancer Center. The Russell Berrie Foundation is named for the late founder of Russ Berrie Co.; it supports individuals and non-profit organizations that respond to the unique challenges of a rapidly changing world and make a meaningful difference in the lives of others.
The Alfiero and Lucia Palestroni Foundation
The Alfiero and Lucia Palestroni Foundation has been a steadfast supporter of Holy Name Hospital and recently contributed $1 million to the Millennium Campaign to modernize and expand our Regional Dialysis Center, one of the largest community hospital-based dialysis programs in the United States. The late Alfiero Palestroni and his wife, Lucia, worked side by side in a union of one mind, one heart, and one soul throughout their 35 years together. Before his death in 1996, Alfiero toiled hard his entire life, rising from humble roots in Italy and America to become a major real estate developer, property owner, and property manager in the New York metropolitan area. Lucia now carries on his legacy of generosity as president of the Alfiero and Lucia Palestroni Foundation.
