The Andy Foundation was formed in 2004 to honor the memory of Andrew Patrick Palmeri. Andy's family, young friends and their parents came together with the mission of helping less fortunate children.

A "by kids-for kids" 501(c) 3 charity, The Andy Foundation raises funds through grass roots events like tag sales, football clinics and bingo parties. Grants, donations, and hands on assistance are given to worthwhile, child-based organizations.
