Christopher Basmas
Philanthropist in Miller Place, NY
The “Christopher Basmas Memorial Foundation” was established with the mission to promote the importance of mental health awareness, particularly in today’s young, adolescent community. All too often this disease goes unnoticed, or misunderstood leading to irrevocable, tragic events such as addiction or even death. However, through the public’s support the foundation is able to provide the education, and advocacy necessary to keep up the daily fight against mental illness, prescription drug abuse, and the relentless fentanyl overdoses that continue to rise every day.
