The G. Fred DiBona, Jr. Memorial Foundation will follow in Fred's Footsteps by continuing his philosophy, efforts, and vision. The foundation will support projects that help foster human growth and improve the quality of life for people in the community.

Fred's Footsteps provides direct financial support to families who have found themselves in a financial crisis due to the costs associated with caring for a critically or chronically ill child.

"He was a great person and the legend will never measure up to the reality of this man…He always offered a smile, when you spoke to him, he made you feel that he was interested in what you were saying, and he left you feeling like you mattered. He was a great leader and his shoes will be a challenge to fill."
