Mission Statement



Mission Statement

The Jeffrey D. Sindicich foundation was established as a way for Jeff's friends and family to honor his life through charitable contribution to local organizations that best support his interests and beliefs.


Background

The foundation was formed to honor the life of Jeff Sindicich, who passed away at age 31 from renal cell cancer.  The premier event is the annual picnic "Fred Fest" that has raised thousands of dollars over the years that benefit local charities.  The foundation continuously explores other fund raising avenues as well as local organizations that would benefit from contribution.  This is a grassroots effort that keeps charitable money in York as well as keeps the lasting memories of our friend, our brother, and our son alive.


Some examples of local charities that benefit directly from this year's fund raising efforts:

York Cancer Center's Patient Help Fund

York County Parks Foundation Charitable Trust

York Suburban Dollars for Scholars- Scholarship Fund

SPCA- York County Chapter

Cultural Alliance of York

York County Children's Advocacy Center

Olivia's House-grief and loss center for children

 

The foundation is always open for suggestions of worthy causes that would benefit from all our contributions.
