President's Message

Sons of Sicily-


As I prepare to pass the torch to the next leader of The Sons of Sicily, I find myself reflecting on the incredible journey I've had over the past three years as your president. It has truly been an honor and a privilege to serve this club, and I couldn’t be prouder of all we have accomplished together.


When I first took on the role of president, I was excited by the opportunity to lead such a remarkable group of individuals. Over the years, we’ve worked tirelessly to host a variety of successful events and festivals that have brought our community closer together. One of the highlights of my tenure was the opportunity to give back to the next generation, and I am proud to share that we were able to award over $50,000 in scholarships to first-year students. These scholarships will help shape the future for many, and I’m thrilled to have played a role in that.


Of course, none of this would have been possible without the dedicated and passionate members of our Board of Directors and the countless volunteers who stepped up time and again to lend a hand. Your support has been invaluable, and I thank you from the bottom of my heart.


As I step down from my position, I am confident in the bright future of The Sons of Sicily under the leadership of our new president, Frank Salciccia. I know Frank will continue to guide the club with the same passion, commitment, and vision that has defined us. I wholeheartedly welcome Frank into his new role and look forward to seeing where he leads us in the years to come.


While my time as president has come to an end, my love for this club and its mission will never waver. Thank you all for your support, your hard work, and your friendship. Here’s to many more years of success, tradition, and brotherhood.


Jon Taormina, President


PS – Thank God for the Sicilian blood flowing through our veins.




Auito Foundation Update


I am very excited to update the club on the status of the Auto Foundation, which is the nonprofit charitable organization funded by the Sons of Sicily. We have a new sense of positivity and momentum after adding some quality members to the Board and eliminating some of the negative influences of our past.


This year we will have given away approximately $15,000 to deserving High school graduates going on to higher education. You should receive your Sons of Sicily dues letters in the mail very soon. Please take some time and consider donating to the Auito Foundation. This money will be used to fund our scholarships. Thank you for your time.
