The Alfred M. Fiume Foundation (501c3) was created in memory of Dr. Alfred M. Fiume, loving husband and father, family man, and friend to many. Better known as Fred, he was an avid volunteer in the community and worked as a dentist. He was involved in the Rutherford Elks Lodge, the Lyndhurst chapter of UNICO, the Rutherford Board of Education, and served in the Army National Guard for nearly 20 years. His sudden death on July 29th, 2015, became the driving force behind creating this foundation, to promote his love of giving to others and supporting important causes. The Alfred M. Fiume Foundation raises money for several causes: -The American Foundation for Suicide Prevention -National Association on Mental Illness -New Jersey Elks Special Children's Committee/Elks Camp Moore -The Alfred M. Fiume Scholarship, presented to a graduating senior of Rutherford High School with interest in pursuing a dental or medical career
