About Us
Origin
The Vasari Cares Foundation was founded in 2017 primarily to engage the Vasari membership in supporting local charities in and around the Vasari community. Most Vasari Members have had long, successful careers in other states and were undoubtedly supporters of charities in those states. Confident in the generosity of Vasari Members and aware of local needs, we recognized the opportunity to direct some of that generosity to charities here in southwest Florida. Funds we raise here, stay here!
