Anthony R. Abraham Foundation Board Member Nancy Bailey visited the Marian Center—a place that has been changing lives for more than six decades.
Founded 62 years ago by nuns from Turin, Italy, the Marian Center provides exceptional care and education for individuals with special needs. In addition to its residential program, the center welcomes more than 90 students daily for adult training, where participants create jewelry and artwork sold to support their programs.
During the visit, Nancy met with Dorothy Norton, Executive Director Maria Fogerty, Resident Manager Sister Filomena, and Executive Director Sister Lidia Valli to see firsthand the creativity and compassion that define this remarkable community.
The visit included a stop at the school’s chapel, which carries a special story—it was once where Coach Don Shula came to pray before football practice. It also featured a showcase of student artwork inspired by the style of artist Romero Britto, who recently spent time with the students.
The Marian Center remains a beacon of care, faith, and empowerment for children and adults with special needs. The Anthony R. Abraham Foundation is proud to support its mission.

“For 35 years, Harry Horgan has built more than an organization—he has built a legacy. Shake-A-Leg Miami stands as proof that courage, determination, and vision can transform lives and communities. At the Anthony R. Abraham Foundation, we are proud to stand alongside Harry and his extraordinary mission.
I believe that taking off our blinders allows us to see the true resilience of people of determination—their strength, dignity, and hope light the way for us all.”

“At the Anthony R. Abraham Foundation, we are proud to support Shake-A-Leg Miami and its incredible programs. Their summer camp opens doors for children—especially those from families without access to such opportunities—to swim, sail, and grow with confidence.
This is what it means to “Champion The Unseen”: recognizing people of determination not for their limitations, but for their resilience, potential, and the value they bring to our world.”

As Chairman of the Anthony R. Abraham Foundation, Thomas A. Abraham visited the students of Riviera Middle School with a message about the true treasure of knowledge. He reminded them that books hold the keys to opportunity, and that only they can unlock it. The lesson he shared is simple but life-changing: “you are the keeper of your own success. Open the book. Take the chance. Claim the treasure that no one can ever take away from you.”
