The Coluccio family, friends and donors gathered in Brooklyn, New York, for the 9th Annual ‘Toast to Life’ Memorial Fundraiser held in the memory and honor of the late Domenico Coluccio. The event celebrates Domenico’s life through positive experiences, family fun and entertainment.
Domenico died in a tragic boating accident and also suffered from Behcet’s Disease. The family began the Toast to Life nine years ago in his memory. Donations from the event benefit two charitable organizations that were close to Domenico’s heart – the American Behcet’s Disease Association of Rochester, Minnesota and The Children’s Inn of Bethesda, Maryland.
The family owns and operates the legendary D. Coluccio & Sons Italian specialty food importer and retail store, located in the heart of Bensonhurst, Brooklyn. Rocco and Enza Coluccio, the parents of Domenico, also have three other children, Maria, Rocco Jr. and Giovanna. Save the date for the 10th Annual “Toast to Life, which will take place on Saturday, June 22, 2019.
