Nouveau Riche – Responsible Accumulation of Wealth “In Action”

Jim Piccolo often speaks of paying it forward…giving back to others… R.A.W. (Responsible Accumulation of Wealth). Words spoken don’t always ring true to the actions of those who speak them… but Jim Piccolo is an exception to that rule!

On Saturday, April 25th, select members of the “Dream Team,” lead by INAs Andre and Tami Popa, in the Los Angeles/Central California market, experienced R.A.W. in ACTION! The Popas sponsored a contest to honor the team’s top five income earners and newly certified ISAs. This elite group was treated to a private training with none other than Jim Piccolo and the never-before-assembled A-List of Community Benefit Presidents, followed by a private social mixer at the Popa’s home, PLUS—V.I.P. tickets to William Shatner’s 19th Annual Hollywood Charity Horse Show (HCHS)! Several philanthropic members of the L.A. Dream Team joined in the fun and giving by purchasing tickets to the charity event.

The generous commitment of time and charitable donation to the HCHS, displayed by Jim Piccolo and The Frank Edward Piccolo Foundation, set a shining example of R.A.W.! Congratulations to INAs Andre and Tami Popa and the L.A. Dream Team for embracing the philosophy and living by the R.A.W. rule through Nouveau Riche!

Special congratulations to the Top 5 income earners (March 16th to April 20th)!
1) Greg & Lori Goodman
2) IRAs Shawn & Robynn Ward
3) IRA Del Jensen
4) Ozzy & Arsenia Rendon
5) Andrea Giannone

Paying it forward,

Nouveau Riche

Honorable mention to newly certified ISAs: Darcy Bormann, Gerek Allen and Dawn Mercer-Whitesell

130 Seriously Ill Children, Families Enjoy ‘Best in West’ Carnival

130 Seriously Ill Children, families enjoy ‘Best in West’ carnival

Thanks to The Frank Edward Piccolo Foundation, more than 130 seriously ill children and family members had the chance April 4 to experience a “Best in the West Carnival” at MacDonald’s Ranch, 26540 N. Scottsdale Road. The Frank Edward Piccolo Foundation sponsored the Great Escape, a Starlight Children’s Foundation program designed to give families with seriously ill children a chance to have some fun and recharge outside of the hospital environment. They also meet others who are facing similar challenges.

Volunteers attended from all across the United States to help with the event. Attendees participated in hayrides, square dancing, face painting, caricature drawings, pony rides along scenic trails (a first time for many children), races and games (including lasso roping, penny pitching, cowboy hat toss and stick-horse racing).

The children were also entertained with live performances by Maricopa Mike, the magician; a strolling cowboy singer; and Earl Grey, the trick pony. In addition, the group enjoyed a cowboy cookout, snow cones and cotton candy.
“The daily emotional and financial struggles that come with caring for a sick child are often so overwhelming that the thought of leaving the house for a family event seems impossible,” said Jo Ann Yeo, community development officer for Starlight Children’s Foundation. “But Starlight understands what families go through when a child is sick, and the importance of breaking the cycle of depression and loneliness. With the help of sponsors like The Frank Edward Piccolo
Foundation, we can provide these families with the chance to have fun together away from the hospital, so they can relax, regroup and return home with a renewed sense of strength and hope.”

Sparkling Starry Soiree nets $32,000 for ill children – Nouveau Riche

Sparkling Starry Soiree nets $32,000 for ill children

By Dave Casadei
Independent Newspapers
Scottsdale-based Starlight Children’s Foundation Arizona continued its generous ways March 21 after raising $32,000 during its annual Sparkling Starry Soirée. The 25-year-old foundation known for donating Fun Centers and PC Pals to area hospitals raised enough to not only fund one new Fun Center and two new PC Pals, but also provide money for families with seriously ill children. Fun Centers are mobile entertainment units containing a Sharp AQUOSTM LCD television, state-of-the-art Nintendo Wii with all the latest video games, as well as a DVD player with movies. PC Pal
laptops are a high-tech solution for hospitalized children to stay in touch with family, friends, and other patients as well as keep up with schoolwork. The event was conducted in a newly built, custom home in Silverleaf North Scottsdale and included entertainment by jazz artist Jay Soto. Guests mingled during a cocktail reception and light dinner by California Pizza Kitchen, which was followed by a silent auction featuring a variety of items including an Aerosmith-autographed electric guitar, a Wii MTV Rock Band set and a John Elway-autographed Broncos helmet.
Guests who donated $100 received a glass of champagne and a cubic zirconium stone. They also earned a raffle ticket for a one-carat diamond.

Adding to the festivities, custom jewelry and gems were displayed, a 2006 Yellow Ferrari 550 Maranello was showcased, and quality cigars were offered to anyone interested. Starlight also recognized Honorary Chairman
Jim Piccolo, founder of the Frank Edward Piccolo Foundation and president of Nouveau Riche Corporation, for his many contributions. Mr. Piccolo touched on the importance of helping young, sick children on behalf of current and future generations. “Working with Starlight Children’s Foundation has proven to be a wonderful way of reaching beyond our known limits of compassion and fulfilling children’s dreams of hope,” Mr. Piccolo said. “It’s a privilege to work with such an organization that is truly unique among others, and we are proud to help chair this event.”

A live auction wrapped up the evening featuring exclusive packages from a private jet getaway to Las Vegas to see Barry Manilow in concert to an Alice Cooper-autographed guitar and a backstage entertainment package with Jazz musician Dave Koz. Starlight Community Development Officer Jo Ann Yeo believes this year’s soirée may have outdone the foundation’s 2008 event. “Last year, Starlight Arizona touched the lives of more than 50,000 seriously ill children and their families statewide,” Ms. Yeo said. “We hope the success of this year’s event will help us reach even more. The money raised will help Starlight provide media and entertainment to brighten children’s lives through Fun Centers, PC Pals and Great Escapes.”

For 25 years, Starlight Children’s Foundation has been dedicated to helping seriously ill children and their families cope with their pain, fear and isolation through entertainment, education and family activities. Starlight’s programs have been proven to distract children from their pain, help them better understand and manage their illnesses, and connect families facing similar challenges so that no one feels alone.
