More than 3,100 people died of drug overdoses in New Jersey in 2018.  That’s 3,100 families impacted by those precious lives lost.  

Eric suffered tremendously, struggling from the disease of addiction.  He was a beautiful soul… so loved by all those around him.  His light shone so bright on all lives he touched.  Eric would want his foundation to make a difference… to call attention to the fact that we are making no progress in fixing the problem in our state.  

Eventually, his foundation will partner with organizations who can make that difference.  But since we are a new foundation and need time to research such organizations, we opted to help to make some children’s lives better in the interim.  

Update: 1st Annual Walk for Eric James – There are no words to describe the outpouring of love and support to honor our Eric James on October 12th! Thank you all for joining us for this special event. We had more than 75 participants and generated more than $5,000 in donations! Congratulations to Captain Cynthia Antico as top team fundraiser and Luke Detore as the top individual fundraiser! Way to go! It was a beautiful day, spent with family and friends and a truly special tribute to our Eric James. We know he is smiling. In love and peace… The Eric James Antico Jr. Foundation Corp.
