Our Story
Who We Are
You probably know us as the organization that has run the annual Italian-American Festival at Pellegrini Park in Newton since 1935. The St Mary of Carmen Society is actually much more than that; we are a non-profit organization committed to helping families and organizations in the community.
Since our founding, the society has donated hundreds of thousands of dollars to organizations, families and individuals in need in Nonantum and surrounding communities. This includes various donations and scholarships. Click here to see a list of some of the organizations we have supported in the past few years.
