Dr. Joe Janowicz Foundation 501(c)(3) pending

The Dr. Joe Janowicz Foundation was created in memory of my husband.

Since his death in 2008, thousands of dollars have been raised and donated in Joe’s name. With the launch of this website and store and with your help, we hope to make more significant and long-term contributions to these charities.

Dr. Joe was an oral maxillofacial surgeon, a teacher, a business leader, homebuilder, volunteer, organizer and fundraiser. An avid outdoorsman and triathlete, he was a loving father, husband, son, best friend, brother, brother-in-law and uncle to many.
