Preserving Italian Heritage in Naples, FL

Over 60 years ago, a visionary group of Italian men and women in Naples, Florida, came together to form an organization that celebrated camaraderie and the rich traditions of Italian ancestry. This inspiring initiative gave birth to the Naples Italian American Club, a cornerstone of the local community since 1969.

In 2009, the Naples Italian American Foundation, a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization, was established to expand the mission beyond social gatherings. Today, our mission includes educational programs, cultural events, and charitable activities, enriching the lives of our members and the broader Naples community.  Today, our philanthropies include five Academic Scholarships, two Special Olympics Scholarships, support for Collier County Special Olympics Bocce Team and an annual event to support our First Responders.

Located at 7035 Airport Road North, Naples, FL 34109, we proudly maintain a welcoming “home away from home” atmosphere for everyone passionate about Italian culture and heritage.

We invite you to join us as a member, participate in our cultural events, dinner dances, Italian cinema and lectures, or support our mission through donations. Together, we can preserve the treasures of Italian-American culture while supporting local charities and making a lasting impact.

The Italian-American heritage is a treasure to preserve, and we’re always seeking fresh ideas and suggestions from our members to enhance our mission.
