Sunshine & Ravioli is recognized by the IRS as a 501(c)(3) charitable organization. Your donations are tax-deductible.  

In 2022, several families with proven track records in philanthropy and community service formed this charity with a specific two-fold mission:

• We develop and implement charitable projects created by young people.  These projects are creative, effective, sustainable and hands-on.  They strengthen the community by group participation.    

• As experiened professionals and community servants, we provide first-hand training to the young people in our lives on the real world process of developing, coordinating and implementing their charitable ideas.  They share their good hearts and high energy, but they also acquire skills and experience in collaboration, organization, budgeting and reporting so that they will become highly effective difference-makers in their communities.

The Cosmos Club of Fair Lawn is hosting an exciting and innovative event to benefit the Fair Lawn Food Pantry, and we are excited to collaborate with them on what will be a night to remember.  Two time world champion and Yankees legend will come to Fair Lawn for a festive Italian dinner and a sports memorabilia auction for charity.  Tickets are limited -- so buy yours today!  

Putin's cruel war against Ukraine has created a humanitarian disaster which requires your urgent help.  Sunshine & Ravioli is proud to collaborate with the heroic work of the Blue & Yellow Foundation to provide refugees and displaced persons with peaceful humanitarian aid, emergent shelter and life-sustaining support.  

We frequenty visit with men and women experiencing homelessness in Newark, NJ.  Each $10 donation allows us to personally and promptly provide a brand new blanket to a person sleeping on the sidewalk on a cold night.  Your generosity to your neighbors in need this autumn and winter is greatly appreciated.  Thank you!

On December 23, 2022, in the Christmas spirit, we will host a traditional Feast of Seven Fishes as a charitable fundraiser.  There will be unforgettable food, terrific prizes, fun music and some surprise entertainment.  We will also present our first ever Community Action Hero award.   Please contact us for more information.

THANK YOU!  Thanks to your generosity, we recently sponsored an inclusive Dance Party for people with all abilities.  Approximately 200 guests enjoyed a live DJ, costumes, snacks, games and fun for everyone.  A great time was had by all.  Please support us so that we can plan more inclusive events like this.  Thank you!
