Frank Michael Iovieno was a man with many great qualities. He was a devoted husband to Rosemary Iovieno and was the father of John and Phil Iovieno, two members of the charity’s Board of Directors, as well as Amy Iovieno and Jeanne Iovieno-Jacobs. In addition to being devoted to his family, he was a loyal friend to many. Throughout his life Frank led by example, demonstrating through his actions how rewarding it is to think of and care for others. He made a lasting difference in many lives. Frank particularly loved children, and when Caring for Children was first started by his son John in 1997, Frank made it very clear how proud and supportive he was of this effort.
Therefore, after Frank passed away suddenly in March 2000, we decided to change the name of the charity from “Caring for Children at Christmas (CCC)” to “The Frank Iovieno Caring for Children Foundation.” We hope he is proud of the good the organization has done in his name.
