Wamesit Friends & Family Foundation’s mission is to provide educational support to children & their families in our community.
Friends’ & Family Foundation is a local 501(c)3 non-profit organization inspired to help our local community members and their families with funding for education. We strive to accomplish this mission by creating opportunities that can positively impact their future. We believe in education and the positive change it can bring to children and the community.
We formed this foundation in partnership with Wamesit Entertainment Center, Inc., who has been able to give away more than $10,000 in scholarships & donate over $250,000.00 worth of value in the last (5) years to surrounding charitable programs & fundraisers. Together and with our team of donors, community partners, and volunteers, we will work hard to support our children and their families throughout this community.

The George ‘Georgie’ Swartz Scholarship has been established to honor George Swartz who passed away from Cerebral Palsy at the young age of 12. Georgie impacted the lives of all those that had the honor to meet him. He will forever be remembered for his strong heart and will to fight.
In Georgie’s honor, the Wamesit Friends and Family Foundation will recognize a student with physical/cognitive disabilities, who has demonstrated Georgie’s strength and positivity, in furtherance of his/her educational goals.
