We extend our heartfelt gratitude to The Edward Boss Prado Foundation for their generous donation to the Gilroy Exchange Club. The foundation’s unwavering commitment lies in empowering individuals who require resources that uphold dignity and respect. Our focus centers on collaborations, programs, and sponsorships that directly benefit families facing the greatest need in the South Santa Clara County area. Through our programs, we bridge service gaps, boost self-esteem, and nurture dignity and respect.
The Edward Boss Prado Foundation, established in 2013 by Gary and Cecelia Ponzini, stands as a tribute to Cecelia’s son, Edward Boss Prado, who tragically passed away at the tender age of 29. Edward’s compassionate nature was evident even during his childhood. He keenly observed the struggles of others and readily extended a helping hand. For instance, he noticed a young boy arriving at school hungry and without lunch. In response, he urged his mother to prepare an extra lunch bag for the boy. Thus, the foundation embodies Edward’s core values of generosity, sensitivity, and being a caring neighbor.
