Jerry Damato Charity Foundation Inc

Collective impact that strengthens every neighborhood.

We unite donors, employers, and community partners around three metro pillars—Education, Health, and Income—so families can thrive with dignity.

Metro Impact Framework

Three pillars. One shared future.

Modeled on collective-impact practice, our work concentrates resources where neighbors tell us the need is greatest—learning, wellness, and financial stability.

Our Mission in Action

A public charity built to mobilize people and purpose.

Jerry Damato Charity Foundation Inc is a recognized 501(c)(3) organization (EIN 20-5114983). Since our IRS exemption effective date of July 7, 2006, we have focused on fundraising and fund distribution that advance medical research and community well-being.

Today we operate as a Collective Impact Metro Hub—connecting workplace campaigns, individual donors, and partner agencies so every dollar is guided by measurable outcomes, not isolated programs.

  • Public charity status under IRC 509(a)(2)
  • Contributions tax-deductible to the extent allowed by law
  • Active Form 990-N filer serving small-scale, high-trust community giving
