The Sofia Rosa & Vincent Dominic Calvanese Memorial Foundation was created in 2007 to remember our little ones and allow us the chance to give back to the facilities which gave our other miracle, Adelina J., a second (and third) chance at life.

Our mission is to allocate donations to facilities dedicated to the well being of babies born premature or in need of special attention.  We hope that our story will help raise awareness and give hope to others and gives other parents a place to find comfort that life does and will go on.  By giving to places dedicated to saving babies lives, we are helping to develop technologies to give preemies a fighting chance and give comforts to families of NICU babies & special needs children who are usually forgotten.

Some children come to us through careful planning, surprise and/or through others.  No matter how we come to know them or how long they stay with us, they are all gifts. 

Donations made to The Foundation are allocated to the following facilities:

Abington Memorial Hospital NICU (Sofia Rosa & Vincent Calvanese designated)
Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (NICU designated)
The March of Dimes (Adelina's MOD Bracelet)
BARC (Memory of Jennifer Calvanese)

 

 

 

 

We want to give sincere thanks to all those who have continued to support  our family through   the good times and bad.  This charity is our way to honor our loved ones and we hope that our story gives others hope.  The organizations chosen as designees for the funds have blessed us with their dedication to saving lives and we want to thank them for it. 

We think of Sofia and Vincent every day and cherish the time we had with them.  Their wings, already earned, will watch over our other children as they grow up.  Until we all meet again, we will remember.

Welcome to the Calvanese Memorial Foundation - dedicated to helping families of premature children.
