• Eric James Antico Jr Foundation is dedicated to a beautiful soul and seeks to help others who are grieving the loss of a loved one.

The “2020” walk was held on April 17th and was a huge success. As a result of all fundraising efforts, it was our pleasure to present $3000 to Make-A-Wish® New Jersey and $3500 to Common Ground Grief Center. Both organizations were very appreciative of the donations and will put them to good use.

Make-A-Wish® New Jersey serves a unique, and vital, role in helping strengthen and empower children battling critical illnesses. They are now in the process of identifying a specific wish that we will adopt in Eric’s memory.

The mission of Common Ground is to provide support in a safe place where children, teens and their families grieving a death can come together and share their experiences as they begin the journey through their grief process. The Center is supported solely by private donations through individuals, corporations, foundations and grants. Because of your donations, they are purchasing some much needed art supplies for the children.

Thank you for supporting The Eric James Antico Jr Foundation. We know that Eric is smiling on us all as we continue to do good, meaningful work in his name.

This foundation is dedicated to the memory and spirit of

Eric James Antico, Jr. 

Our Eric is a beautiful soul! He was taken from us too soon… His light shone so bright on all lives he touched.  It is our privilege to continue the work that Eric started so young in his life. His foundation will serve to help others come through the grieving process and support families who have suffered such loss.

For those of us who had the privilege of knowing Eric, our lives have forever been changed by his love, laughter and genuine caring for others. Eric would want his foundation to make a difference…to help families who are grieving the loss of a loved one. Eric’s foundation wholeheartedly supports Common Ground Grief Center in Manasquan NJ and Make a Wish NJ. Two very deserving organizations.
