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.

"I remember Fred on the elevators at the IBC building and at various meetings. What I remember is his smile and his sense of humor. He was genuinely funny… His humor combined with his intelligence, creativity and vision made him a truly human leader. I am sorry for his passing, we are all poorer for his loss and yet richer for having known him."
