Mission Of Deeds

The Mission of Deeds was formed in 1993 by Anthony (Tony) Triglione, a successful businessman and resident of Winchester, Massachusetts. Mr. Triglione was haunted by images of children and their mothers, some living in affluent communities including his town, who were sleeping on floors and eating on milk crates because they could not afford to buy beds, tables, chairs, and other necessities. Determined to improve the quality of life for these and other families, Mr. Triglione formed Mission of Deeds for one single purpose -- to ensure that they would have a place to go for help at a time in their lives when they need it most. Soon after he formed the Mission of Deeds, word quickly spread among Mr. Triglione’s friends and business associates who shared his goal of making a difference in the lives of needy individuals and families. With a shared commitment and vision, the founding members of the Mission of Deeds launched a campaign to generate awareness of the new organization. Over time the response was overwhelming as hundreds of people from surrounding communities offered to donate money, furniture, blankets, sheets, lamps, and various kitchen items. Thanks to the dedication of our volunteers and the generosity of our supporters, the Mission of Deeds has been able to help thousands of families and fulfill Mr. Triglione’s vision of providing a better life for people in need.
