The Board of Aldermen have appointed St. Roch’s Monsignor Sal E. Polizzi to the Board of Directors of the St. Louis Philanthropic Organization, Inc. Polizzi will hold one of the ten positions the aldermen select.
The Philanthropic Organization disburses funds to various social service and neighborhood assistance projects.
The Philanthropic Organization is the repository of funds set aside by cable television companies because the city could only charge a 5% franchise fee.
These monies would then go to groups and agencies for charitable use.
