The Chalfonte Foundation envisions a world that is patient and kind; that encourages the hearts of children to explore; inspires their minds to be creative; and, supports the unique expression of their spirit’s “superhero” purpose.

The Mission

The mission of the Chalfonte Foundation is to eradicate poverty of all forms among children living in the communities served by the Foundation and to foster and promote happiness by providing tools, resources, and experiences that support the well-being of those children. 

Scope of the Mission.  The poverty of a child may include educational, cultural, spiritual, or physical poverty, which includes economic poverty; and poverty of the spirit or body by illness, disease, or injury.

“That’s what makes this place so great. Everyone who comes here is accepted, and becomes part of the group.”

— Ryan Giannini, died at age 20 from Gorham’s Disease, or vanishing bone syndrome.
