After Michael Petrone’s passing in 1998 while undergoing a heart and kidney transplant, his friends, fellow graduates of Bishop Kenrick High School’s Class of 1976, knew the best way to honor Mike was to celebrate his approach to life and embrace the things the mattered most to him – family, friends, children and his hometown of Norristown. The Michael Petrone Foundation was established to support charities and individuals who reflect and represent Mike’s strength of character, integrity and compassion for others. And since 1999, MPF has proudly honored the legacy of Mike Petrone by modeling a simple code...friends helping friends. This year the 23rd annual MPF golf outing seeks to lend our support to two honorable organizations: the Patrician Society; and Variety–the Children’s Charity of the Delaware Valley. From its home base in Norristown the Patrician Society has reached far into the community since 1981 providing help to the elderly, homeless persons, families receiving public assistance, residents of boarding homes, and others in need. Variety-The Children’s Charity of the Delaware Valley, is based in Worcester, but also reaches far into the MONTCO community to enrich the lives of children and adults living with disabilities through its many year round programs. Both of these outstanding organizations serve society’s most vulnerable individuals who are most in need of our support, help, and compassion. Their “friends helping friends” philosophy is a true fit for the continuing work of the Michael Petrone Foundation! 23rd Annual MPF Golf Outing Details: link below!!
