The Nicholas Tedesco Foundation

The Nicholas Tedesco Foundation was born from heartbreak — and built on love.

In March of 2024, the world lost Nicholas Anthony Tedesco far too soon. His mom, Shannon, was left shattered, trying to make sense of a life forever changed. But she wasn’t the only one, there was also his sister Lily and his father Phil. The loss of Nicholas rippled outward — touching friends, family, coworkers, teammates, and even those who had only shared a brief moment with him.

Nicholas had a gift — he could connect with anyone. His warmth, his humor, and his kindness left a mark that time can’t erase. To know him was to feel seen, accepted, and loved. His absence created a silence that can never truly be filled.

Yet from that silence came a purpose. From grief, a mission.

The Nicholas Tedesco Foundation was created to honor his spirit — to bring hope, comfort, and support to others facing unimaginable loss. It’s a commitment to turn pain into purpose, tragedy into action, and loss into love.

Nicholas’s light continues to shine through every act of kindness, every family helped, and every life touched.

Join us in carrying his light forward. Together, we can make a difference — one heart, one life, one act of compassion at a time.
