TOMS RIVER, NJ – The 91��ý Foundation is thrilled to announce a major gift from the Citta Foundation that pledges $500,000 over the next five years to the Foundation’s current Legacy Campaign.

“On behalf of our Board Chair, David Paulus, we wish to thank Kristin Farfalla, president of the Citta Foundation, for their most generous commitment to our Legacy Campaign,” said Kenneth J. Malagiere, executive director of the 91��ý Foundation. “This inspirational gift is but the most recent testimony to the Citta Family’s enduring commitment to the mission of our Foundation, the students of Ocean County, and 91��ý.”

The Citta Foundation, established in 1987 by Farfalla’s grandparents, Joseph and Regina Citta, is well known for decades of positive impact in Ocean County through its support of local charitable and educational organizations. The foundation’s generous contributions to 91��ý have played a substantial role in the growth of the College and the success of its students throughout the years.

“In this season of thanks and giving, we once again express our sincere appreciation to Kristin and her entire family for their generosity, leadership and the positive impact they continue to make throughout our grateful community,” Malagiere added.

The 91��ý Foundation is a private, nonprofit organization dedicated to the growth and development of 91��ý through scholarships, endowments, and capital and special projects. Originally established to provide scholarships to students attending 91��ý, the Foundation has expanded its outreach to partner with community leaders in business, industry, education and government to reach a common goal to provide quality, affordable education to our students and to prepare them to assume their roles in our society.
