Thank you for your generous donation and support in helping me raise money for NY Common Pantry! New York Common Pantry (NYCP) works toward the reduction of hunger and food insecurity through an array of programs that function to establish long-term independence for those they serve.
My employer (of 16 years and counting!), Restaurant Associates (R/A), has worked with NYCP in a meaningful way since 2016, supporting their mission in a variety of ways from sponsoring the annual ‘Friendsgiving’ event, donating surplus food from area accounts and events, consulting on culinary and nutrition programs, organizing volunteer groups, and much more. Our CEO, Dick Cattani, also serves on their Board of Directors.
As an avid runner, NYC will be my 8th marathon, and is one I’ve been wanting to run for years. I’m proud to run the marathon and raise funds with my longtime R/A colleague and friend, Tory Roth (seen next to me in the photo above at the annual NYCP toy drive). While independently we are raising $3,000 each, we are working together as a R/A team to have the greatest impact for NYCP and its mission in reducing hunger and food insecurity.
