Jon Mastronardi

Jon was a caretaker to his core and found joy in showing kindness to others. The fulfillment he found in helping others was not only exemplified in his work as an ICU Nurse, but also in many random acts of kindness that allowed him to touch so many lives.

In recent months, his desire to bring more joy to people’s lives was seen in his exploration of creating a nonprofit to do just that, to share in #JonsJoy (JonsJoy)

To honor Jon’s desire in supporting those in need, we’re asking for donations to this GoFundMe set up in his name. We will be directing those funds to Youth Pride, Inc., a Rhode Island non-profit whose mission is to meet the unique, ongoing needs of LGBTQ+ youth and young adults through direct service, support, advocacy, and education. Each year moving forward an event will be hosted on Jon’s birthday to celebrate him and carry through with completing good deeds in his name.
