About the Foundation


The Basilone Memorial Foundation Inc. is a non-profit organization operated exclusively for charitable purposes. Our mission is specifically to raise funds to ensure a better quality of life for veterans as well as for the cancer patients that are serviced by the Steeplechase Cancer Center. The co-founders of the Basilone Memorial Foundation are Donald Tozzi and Kim Van Note, niece of John Basilone.
To honor the Basilone spirit, our foundation raises money for both the Robert Wood Johnson Steeplechase Cancer Center in Somerville, NJ and theFisher House Foundation in Bethesda, MD. Fisher Houses provide military families housing close to a loved one during hospitalization for an illness, disease or injury.
The Basilone Memorial Foundation is a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization. Please consider making a contribution to assist our veterans who have sacrificed so much for our country. Any donation you could provide will be greatly appreciated.
