Thomas Silvera and his wife, through their grief, created The Elijah-Alavi Foundation in honor of their son Elijah-Alavi who had passed away on November 3rd, 2017 due to a food allergen that was given to him while attending an NYC daycare. As a food allergic parent with another son with food allergies, Thomas has been working to create lasting change in the food allergy community and beyond. Thomas has been working tirelessly to create change in legislation. He aided in the passing of "Elijah's Law", named after his son Elijah-Alavi Silvera, which was signed by Governor Andrew Cuomo on September 12th, 2019.
