Foundation Spotlight
Creating opportunities, building brighter futures, and strengthening our
community through strategic philanthropy
This year, Jack & Jill Center is honored to spotlight The Frederick A.
DeLuca Foundation for their significant contributions to our Capital
Campaign and Family Program. The Frederick A. DeLuca Foundation is a
private family foundation supporting charitable programs that empower
individuals to lead healthy and productive lives through education,
awareness, and research initiatives.
The Foundation was created in 1997 by the late Fred DeLuca, co-founder
of the global Subway® restaurant chain. Mr. DeLuca was passionate
about providing individuals an opportunity to improve their lives through
hard work and dedication, and, in turn, to benefit their family and
community.
Since its inception, the Foundation has focused on providing educational
scholarship opportunities and grants to community-based organizations in
the state of Connecticut. Today, the Foundation also supports health
awareness, workforce development, and artistic experiences through
educational programs that enhance the lives of children and families
throughout South Florida and beyond.
We wish to express our deepest gratitude to The Frederick A. DeLuca
Foundation for their generous support of our children, families, and
community.
