Lead Sunshine Kids Foundation Fundraiser

Steve Schirripa, best known for his memorable roles in Blue Bloods and The Sopranos, is set to headline a special fundraiser benefiting the Sunshine Kids Foundation, bringing his star power to an event dedicated to helping children with cancer.

The fundraiser, scheduled to take place in Warwick, will support the Sunshine Kids Foundation, a nonprofit organization that provides positive group activities and emotional support for children undergoing cancer treatment. The organization has spent decades creating memorable experiences that help young patients and their families find moments of joy during incredibly difficult times.

Schirripa has long been involved in charitable causes and community events, making him a fitting guest for the fundraiser. Fans will have the opportunity to see the actor in person while contributing to a meaningful cause that directly benefits children facing serious medical challenges.

Television audiences know Schirripa as Detective Anthony Abetemarco on Blue Bloods, where he became a fan favorite through his partnership with Erin Reagan. Before that, he earned widespread acclaim for portraying Bobby Baccalieri on HBO’s The Sopranos, a role that cemented his place as one of television’s most recognizable character actors.

Organizers hope the event will raise significant funds and awareness for the Sunshine Kids Foundation’s ongoing mission. With Schirripa leading the fundraiser, the gathering is expected to attract both longtime fans and supporters eager to make a difference in the lives of children battling cancer.

The Warwick fundraiser promises to be an inspiring evening that combines entertainment, community spirit, and philanthropy—all in support of giving young cancer patients opportunities to smile, connect with others, and create lasting memories.
