Susan Satriano Foundation
THE SUSAN SATRIANO FOUNDATION
The Susan Satriano Foundation was established in loving memory of Susan Satriano Russo, a remarkable woman whose courage, grace, and spirit touched everyone she met. After a long and valiant battle with breast cancer, Sue passed away in 2005, leaving behind a legacy of love, strength, and unwavering hope.
The foundation was created to honor Sue's memory and to carry forward the values she lived by — compassion, family, and the belief that life, even in its most difficult moments, is a gift to be cherished. Through the foundation, we seek to support those who are facing the same journey Sue faced, and to remind them that they are not alone.
OUR MISSION
The Susan Satriano Foundation is dedicated to raising awareness about breast cancer, supporting patients and families navigating a cancer diagnosis, and celebrating the human spirit's capacity for love and resilience.
We believe that no one should face cancer alone. Our mission is to provide comfort, resources, and community to those who need it most — and to keep Susan's memory alive through acts of kindness, generosity, and hope.

IN HER MEMORY
"Sue and I did our very best to live by this credo; after all you get only one shot here…make it a great time! Not only is laughter good for healing and good for your soul, it allows you the time to escape…for maybe a moment, and if you're lucky, maybe longer."
— J.S. Russo, In Sickness and In Health: A Memoir of Love
