News & Updates

This month, the Phil With Love Foundation had the honor of presenting an additional $5,000 donation to the Philip L. Rabadi Memorial Fund at Albany Medical College. This fund continues to support future physician assistants in memory of Philip, whose dedication to medicine, compassion, and excellence continue to inspire all of us.

We were joined by Nathan Gardner, Director of the PA Program, who accepted the donation on behalf of Albany Medical College. Also present were Dr. Vanessa Denning, a member of the scholarship selection committee, and two outstanding scholarship recipients—Brandon LaVenture, a past recipient, and this year’s honoree, Hannah Miles.

Sharing this moment with both past and current recipients reminded us why this work is so important. These future PAs carry forward Philip’s spirit—his passion for patient care, his kindness, and his drive to make a difference in the lives of others.

Every dollar donated to the memorial fund helps shape the future of healthcare by supporting PA students who embody the same values Philip stood for. We’re proud to contribute to their journey and to continue turning our grief into purpose—fueling opportunity, growth, and impact in Philip’s name.

Thank you to Albany Medical College for your partnership, and to everyone who continues to support the foundation and this important fund.

Philip's Legacy

We are grateful for the opportunity to PHIL the world with LOVE and for the many wonderful supporters, donors, event volunteers, and friends and family who are helping us carry on Philip's memory.

Turns out not where but who you're with that really matters. 

and hurts not much when you're around.

See, you and me have a better time than most can dream — much better than the best. So, we can pull on through whatever tears at us, whatever holds us down.

and if nothing can be done, we'll make the best of what's around
