The Leadership Collier Foundation, an affiliate of the Greater Naples Chamber, has renamed its annual award recognizing exceptional community leadership in honor of longtime Collier County attorney and Naples civic leader John Passidomo, who died in April 2024

The award will now be called the John Passidomo Distinguished Alumni Award, according to a statement, in recognition of Passidomo’s dedication to Collier County. The Leadership Collier Foundation announced the change during its annual graduation celebration May 21. The event was held at Gulfshore Playhouse and celebrated the completion of 2025 Leadership Collier and Associate Leadership Collier programs.
