The Santomero Family Foundation recognizes that the principles and institutions that characterize American exceptionalism were hard won and can be lost easily. The Foundation is dedicated to a vigorous defense of the bedrock of a free society as we believe that it is this freedom that creates a richness of community and culture that is the basis of a well‐lived life. We seek to further these beliefs by supporting the study, defense, and practice of the individual initiative and ordered liberty that leads to prosperity, strong families, and vibrant communities.
