Before November exits tomorrow, we wanted to share the celebration of the Veterans in our membership! We took a moment to recognize them at our November meeting and were honored to have our National President Ralph Contini and the UNICO National Armed Services Chairman Bob Gynn (among other ...guests) in attendance that evening! These members went above and beyond our motto of “Service Above Self” with their dedication to our country. Thank you to all of our Veterans!🇺🇸

UNICO National – “Join Us!”
What We Do
UNICO National is a service organization of Italian Americans established in Waterbury, Connecticut in 1922 to “engage in charitable works, support higher education, and perform patriotic deeds”. According to its website, it is the “largest Italian American service organization in the USA”. At that time of its founding, the trial of anarchists Sacco and Vanzetti were in the news, and many stories fostered a belief that Italian Americans were loyal primarily to their homeland. UNICO was founded to show that Italian Americans were loyal to America first and held no allegiance to Italy except through cultural traditions.
Unico is the Italian word for “unique”, chosen to represent the one-of-a-kind nature of the organization. The word has since become a backronym which stands for Unity, Neighborliness, Integrity, Charity, Opportunity.
Atlantic County UNICO Scholarship Foundation
