IN THE COURSE of founding and growing the Legacy Fund, Trovato made a sacrifice of his own — his hockey career. After graduating from Massachusetts, he bounced around to three different minor league teams before retiring on his own accord.
“I’d be doing board meetings on the team bus in California,” Trovato recalled. “But my trustees were fantastic at keeping it together.
“I knew I wasn’t going to make it big in hockey,” Trovato admitted. “As I thought more about my goals and what was at stake, I knew I had to make a choice.” He finally decided to continue what he’d started.
“When the Fund started, we were responsible for 20 kids. Now it’s up near 50,” he explained. “That’s telling as to what’s at stake — and how much work there is to be done.”
