• Because Nobody grieves alone

    The Pat & Trish Rasicci Legacy Foundation exists to carry their memory forward through two core commitments: re-establishing The Rasicci Scholarship at Green High School, and helping offset the cost of grief counseling so that any K–12 student in their communities can have access to a proper, supported grieving process.

Who We Are

The Pat & Trish Rasicci Legacy Foundation is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization dedicated to helping children navigate the grieving process after losing a parent to cancer.

Our mission is to carry Pat & Trish’s memory forward through two core commitments: re-establishing The Rasicci Scholarship at Green High School, and helping offset the cost of grief counseling so that every K–12 student in our community has access to the support they deserve.

What We Do

Every donation helps us support children in our communities who are grieving the loss of a parent to cancer.

The Rasicci Scholarship

We are proud to re-establish The Rasicci Scholarship at Green High School — originally created by Pat Rasicci in honor of his late wife, Trish. This scholarship supports graduating seniors as they take their next steps forward, carrying on a tradition of investing in the young people of our community.

Grief Counseling Support

Losing a parent is one of the hardest things a child can experience. We work to ensure that no K–12 student in our communities has to navigate that loss alone. Through financial assistance for grief counseling, we help families access the professional support their children need to heal — because every child deserves a proper grieving process.

Communities Served

We are rooted in Green and Cleveland, Ohio, and Sarasota, Florida — the communities where the Rasicci children now call home. It is because of the love and support they experienced growing up that they are committed to giving back to the neighbors, families, and children in each of these communities.
