The Dean Michael Clarizio Cancer Foundation

Hello, and welcome to the Dean Michael Clarizio Cancer Foundation.  This foundation was founded by its namesake, Dean Michael Clarizio during his own personal battle with cancer.  The foundation is tirelessly maintained by his family and friends in an effort to carry out his vision... the vision of helping others who face the challenges of cancer. 

Dean Michael Clarizio was born on March 5th, 1971 in Orange, New Jersey. He was the second of three sons born to Maria and Joseph Clarizio.  Dean lived his entire life in New Jersey, and was a positive influence on everyone he came in contact with.  In July of 2004, Dean was diagnosed with inoperable stomach cancer.  Facing the biggest challenge of his life, Dean maintained an upbeat attitude and a selfless dedication to helping others.  He welcomed spiritual, alternative and clinical treatments, and continued to embrace life as he did his family and friends. Dean's decision to start an organization to provide support for others facing similar challenges is testimony to the truly beautiful soul that he was. 

While Dean's body eventually succumbed to the disease on June 18th, 2005, it never broke his spirit.  He remained vigilant,  hopeful, and focused.  This foundation represents the fruition of Dean's vision, and we are all proud to be a part of his team. 

The foundation is operated by volunteers and is funded with donations by generous people such as yourself.  We would love it if you were a part of Dean's team too. 

Thank you,  DMCCF

We recently held our 4th annual Dean Michael Clarizio Cancer Foundation Dinner on March 6th. It was another highly successful event where we raised money for families struggling with cancer.

 In the April 2nd, 2009 edition of the West Orange Chronicle they ran an article on The Dean Michael Clarizio Cancer Foundation. The article is titled: "Clarizio fundraiser strikes again, easing burden"
