Giving Back

Masiello Family
Philanthropy

My father, James Masiello, believed that the greatest investment you can make is in a person's potential. Our family's giving is built on that belief — removing the obstacles that stand between driven individuals and the futures they've earned.

Our Mission

What We Stand For

Masiello Family Philanthropy is committed to fostering authenticity, responsibility, and curiosity in individuals with great potential. We support highly motivated learners of all ages by addressing unmet needs as they advance their careers. As a result, they are able to "pay it forward" and enrich the lives of others. We support learners who embody what James A. Masiello was all about: removing obstacles so that driven individuals can achieve their dreams.

Spring 2026 Impact

Real People. Real Change.

This spring, our partnership with the Community College System of New Hampshire helped hundreds of Allied Health graduates cross the final finish line — covering licensure and testing fees that stood between education and a career in nursing, dental hygiene, radiologic technology, and more.

It feels like divine intervention, like a godsend. My dream has been to go on to be a holistic nurse… dreams that now have a chance of coming true thanks to your generosity.

As a mom of two little ones, planning funds for paying for my boards was going to be a challenge, and this lightens the load.
