Pray Family Foundation

The Pray Family Foundation is supported by D.F. Pray General Contractors. We had been donating to various charities for many years, when one of our own, Ron Carr, was struck with Leukemia. The Pray Family Foundation was created in Ron’s memory and continues with him in mind as we raise funds in support of finding a cure.

Impacting and supporting our communities

Originating in 1997 as a charity golf tournament in memory of Ron Carr, an esteemed member of the D.F. Pray family and a valued friend, The Pray Family Foundation has evolved significantly.

Our mission is dedicated to funding research aimed at eradicating Leukemia and Lymphoma, Neuroblastoma, and Pancreatic Cancer, as well as supporting research initiatives with Southcoast Health and various philanthropic activities within our operational communities. Our unwavering commitment is reflected in our ongoing efforts to raise funds to support cancer research.

The “419” Ron Carr Award

Each year, we select a recipient for the “419” Award. The 419 Sail holds substantial significance for Ron and embodies his enthusiasm for sailing.
