Joan's Joy - The Joan Angela D'Alessandro Memorial Foundation The Joan's Joy Foundation honors the memory of 7-year old Girl Scout Joan. The Foundation promotes child safety via programs plus helps poor children.

Joan was 7 yrs old when she was sexually assaulted and murdered while delivering Girl Scout cookies to a neighbor in Hillsdale, NJ in 1973. Although Joan's life was brutally taken, her spirit lives on and gave her mother, Rosemarie, the strength to have fought to keep her daughter’s killer in prison and get legislation such as "Joan's Law" among others passed at the state and federal levels.
