Philanthropy

As an enthusiastic member of the Westport and Weston community, I am dedicated to staying involved in as many community activities as possible, both locally and beyond.

Coalition for the Homeless

As a Volunteer with the Coalition for the Homeless and their Grand Central Food Program (GCFP), I have traveled in a van with other passionate volunteers throughout New York City distributing food and clothing to the homeless.

The GCFP was founded in 1985, the day after a homeless woman died of starvation in Grand Central Terminal. Since then the program has grown to become the largest mobile soup kitchen in America.

Each night, the Coalition's three vans deliver healthy meals of hot stew, bread, fresh fruit, and juice or milk — as well as coats, hats, gloves and blankets in the colder weather — to those struggling to survive on the streets. For many homeless New Yorkers, this is their only meal of the day.
