Community Partners of the Month

The following individuals have been nominated for our Community Partners of the Month Award for July 2026 by retired CPD Commander Keith Sulzer, and his statement is as follows:

“Lou Galizio, Nick Mazzone, and the Men of St Rocco’s have helped raise money for the CPF and the 2nd District for nearly 20 years. They have selflessly sold tickets and donated their time organizing and manning reverse raffles so that our officers and our organization could help kids and families in our community. Most people don’t understand what goes into organizing and running fundraising events, and these men do it effortlessly and generously! Our thanks, goes out to St Rocco’s Church and the Men of St Rocco’s for all they do for those in need.”

It is because of their dedication to our officers, and the kids and families in our community, that the Cleveland Police Foundation is honored to name Lou Galizio, Nick Mazzone and the Men of St Rocco’s our Community Partners of the Month for July 2026. (Bob Guttu CPF) (Nominated by Keith Sulzer)
