His generosity amazes me. Russell Salvatore has been giving and giving and giving to Buffalo and WNY causes for decades. Today, he donated TEN vans to the Veterans Administration to help disabled veterans.

Mr. Salvatore called it a very special and important day in his life. He said in a message on Facebook that helping out in the community still, after all these years, “gives him goosebumps.”

The philanthropist has done so much for our community and is the epitome of Buffalove.

Way to go, Mr. Salvatore!

About Me

 

 

Welcome to Totally Buffalo! A local lifestyle website.

My name is Mary Friona-Celani and I am the creator of this site! I’m a wife, a mom, a grandma, a Buffalo booster, an entrepreneur and a small business owner. I’m so glad you stopped by.  After 20 years in the buffalo media, I went out on my own to tell stories about the people, places, events and all-around fabulousness of this wonderful place we call home. Buffalo is different and so is this site. We are here to share stories, encourage kindness, and help make this a better place to live.

We’ll help those in need when we can through our charity arm, Totally Buffalo Cares.

We help local small businesses, artisans and vendors though our events and our Totally Buffalo Stores.

We’ll do all of this with a little help from friends in our community.

    I would like to include that Kevin Elis began this endeavor writing letters and making 100’s of phone calls – spending his own time and money with no reimbursement – all because he sat at Veteran’s hospital waiting for meds because he is permanently disabled – and watched fellow veterans wait hours for transportation. I would love for others to hear his story too.
