The Minette Grosso McKenna Angel Foundation was founded in 2004, a year after Minette Grosso McKenna passed away from breast cancer. Her courage, strength and determination during her ten-year battle inspired many and, as a nurse, she continued to offer assistance and support to other cancer patients throughout her own battle.
The foundation changed its name to Minette’s Angels in 2011. Its mission is to keep the spirit of Minette alive by supporting breast cancer patients and survivors. It provides assistance to those in treatment, supports research and promotes breast health awareness, which is vital to saving lives. Minette’s Angels offers scholarships to Verona students entering the medical field, particularly on nursing majors. It also provides a scholarship to Seton Hall University for a second-year nursing student.
