The proceeds from Festa Italiana 2020, like every year, go to St. Anthony’s Foundation of Charlotte, a 501c3 non-profit, which supports organizations dedicated to helping people with intellectual, developmental, and physical special needs and challenges. Since 2006, FESTA has raised more than $200,000 for Nevins Center. Help us make this year the best Festa Italiana yet.
