ABOUT US
The Alfred M. Fiume Foundation was created in memory of Dr. Alfred M. Fiume, loving husband and father, family man, and friend to many. Better known as Fred, he was an avid volunteer in the community and worked as a dentist. He was involved in the Rutherford Elks Lodge, the Lyndhurst chapter of UNICO, the Rutherford Board of Education, and served in the Army National Guard for nearly 20 years. His sudden death on July 29th, 2015, became the driving force behind creating this foundation, to promote his love of giving to others and supporting important causes. Our focus is specifically for mental wellness, working to provide assistance to those who need services for their mental wellbeing.
The Alfred M. Fiume Foundation raises money for several causes:
–The American Foundation for Suicide Prevention
–National Alliance on Mental Illness
-The American Cancer Society and Relay For Life
–Tragedy Assistance Program for Survivors
–The Alfred M. Fiume Foundation Scholarship and The Lieutenant Colonel Fiume Scholarship– See SCHOLARSHIPS Page for more information
-Our Therapeutic Assistance Program– See THERAPEUTIC ASSISTANCE Page for more information
