Courtesy Of Curtis
"Lifting Foster Youth, Strengthening Our Community"
Our Story
Courtesy of Curtis was founded in loving memory of Curtis and Lisa Fabio, two remarkable individuals whose lives were defined by compassion, generosity, and a deep commitment to children in foster care. Curtis, a father, mentor, and natural giver, had a gift for bringing joy and laughter to childhood. He believed in creating moments that mattered and in giving without expecting anything in return. His spirit of cheerful giving left a lasting impression on everyone he touched.
Lisa shared that same heart for service and love for children. Together, they opened their hearts and home, later adopting children and showing the world what unconditional love truly looks like. Their lives were a living example of kindness in action.
Courtesy of Curtis exists to honor their legacy — to carry forward the love, laughter, and generosity they poured into the lives of so many. Through this organization, we support foster children and families with the same open hands and open hearts they modeled every day. This is more than a mission; it is a tribute, a celebration, and a promise to keep their light shining in the lives of others.

This holiday season, Courtesy of Curtis is hosting a Turkey & Coat Drive to support foster families in our community — and we need your help!
We’re asking for:
Monetary donations to help us purchase turkeys for families in need.
New or gently used coats in all sizes to keep children warm through the winter months.
Your contribution ensures that foster children not only enjoy a hearty Thanksgiving meal but also stay protected from the cold with a cozy, clean coat.
