Italy Needs Our Help - Donate Today to Cyclone Harry Relief!

The Sons of Italy Foundation (SIF) is raising critical funds to support our Italian brothers and sisters in the aftermath of Cyclone Harry, which has caused devastating destruction across Southern Italy, Sicily, and Sardinia.

Now is the moment to act.

Cyclone Harry has left families displaced, homes destroyed, and communities struggling to recover. Widespread flooding, severe infrastructure damage, and prolonged power outages have affected countless towns, creating urgent humanitarian needs. As Italians and Italian Americans, we feel a deep responsibility to stand with our brothers and sisters in this moment of crisis.

With your support, we can once again bring necessary relief and hope to those facing this unimaginable hardship.

For more than six decades, the Sons of Italy Foundation has answered the call when disaster strikes—both in the United States and abroad. Since our founding in 1959, we have raised millions in support of disaster relief in Italy and around the world. The Sons of Italy Foundation is actively working with the Italian government to ensure that the funds reach the communities that need them the most.
