2010 New York Honorees - Mary and Philip Erdoes
The Fabretto Children’s Foundation is extremely pleased to present the 2010 Corazón de Oro award to Mary and Philip Erdoes in recognition of their long time and loyal support of our organization. Through their annual sponsorship of our New York Night for Niños Event and their extraordinary advocacy on the Foundation’s behalf with friends, families and business associates, Mary and Philip have had a tangible and lasting impact on the lives of thousands of children in Nicaragua. Fabretto is deeply grateful to the Callahan/Erdoes families for their continued commitment to our work. We hope you will join us on May 6th as honor Mary and Phillip for the invaluable contributions they have made to the wellbeing of impoverished children and the Foundation.
Mary is the CEO of J.P. Morgan Asset Management, where she oversees $1.7 trillion of assets. Philip is founder and CEO of Bear Ventures, a venture capital firm based in New York City which seeded or founded such brands as Worldwide Express franchises (logistics), ducduc (furniture), PowerAdvocate (energy), and The New Traditionalists (home furnishings).
Philip and Mary are both active community members. In addition to their involvement with Fabretto, Philip is a member of the Young President's Organization (YPO) and is engaged in a number of charitable activities and foundations. Mary sits on the Board of the US Fund for UNICEF.
Mary is originally from Chicago and holds a BS in Mathematics from Georgetown University and an MBA from Harvard University, Graduate School of Business. Philip is originally from Oklahoma City. He holds a BS in Biology/Bio-medicine from Oklahoma State University, a JD with Honors from the University Of Oklahoma, College of Law, and an MBA from Harvard, as well.
Mary and Philip live in New York City with their three daughters.
About The Corazon De Oro Award
The Fabretto organization was founded in 1953 in Nicaragua by Italian missionary Father Rafael Maria Fabretto. During his decades of service to the children of Nicaragua, he called upon people from all walks of life to do what they could to help the children - from campesino farmers and wealthy business owners, to homemakers, humble tradesmen and political leaders. He would proclaim that those who went above and beyond the call of duty to help the children had “un corazón de oro,” a heart of gold. The Corazón de Oro Award is presented to individuals who demonstrate this same commitment to helping Nicaragua’s children and who thereby help to keep our mission alive in the communities we serve.
