October, 2010, New York, NY – Once again, New Rochelle train commuters will see an extraordinary display of Italian-American heritage with the annual Italian History Month and Columbus Day month-long celebrations when arriving in Manhattan. The Columbus Citizen’s Foundation sponsors the annual event that includes an exhibit in Grand Central Terminal’s Vanderbilt Hall. During the coming weekend, the celebration includes a gala dinner, wreath-laying at Columbus Circle and culminated by the world-famous Columbus Day parade while celebrating Italian-American heritage on New York’s Fifth Avenue since 1929.
This Foundation is a non-profit organization in New York City. They are committed to fostering an appreciation of Italian-American heritage and achievement through a broad range of philanthropic and cultural activities. They provide opportunities for deserving Italian-American students to gain academic advancement with scholarships and grant programs.
