projects and organizations that were meaningful to her. She was an advocate for
the arts, education, medicine, the Catholic Church and its charities, among
other organizations. During her life, the Foundation donated substantial sums
to various organizations.

enhance her legacy by making meaningful gifts to deserving organizations that
Ms. Mirolo would have supported.
