HOPE Community Services in Honor of Kevin Aronin

May 4, 2021 marked 10 long years since our father’s passing. August 23rd would have been his 67th birthday and we would love it if you would join us in celebrating his life.

For those of you who didn't have the chance to know him, it’s important to note that he was guided by two main passions in life - charity and fighting for those who can't. The only thing that came close to the joy he experienced when caring for his community was when he was in the kitchen cooking up a feast. That’s why this year we have set up a fundraiser to benefit HOPE Community Services in New Rochelle, NY - a very important organization that was near and dear to his heart.

When someone is down on their luck and doesn't know how they will feed their kids, HOPE Community Services is there to lend a helping hand and put food on the table. In 2020, HOPE Community Services served as New Rochelle’s leading non-profit organization, stepping up and responding to the huge increase in demand for emergency food that stemmed from the Covid-19 Crisis.

Hope provided 2,341,386 meals, and over 120 tons of food went out their door. More food was given out in 2020 than in the past 10 years combined.

Your gift can have a powerful impact:

$50 could provide hot dinners for 8 people

$100 could provide pantry bags for 2 people for 1 week

$250 could feed 5 seniors for 1 week

$500 could provide showers, clean clothes and supplies for 10 neighbors in need

$1,000 could fuel the Soup Kitchen for 2 days

Thank you all for your support and generosity, and for continuing to help us honor our Dad’s legacy. We know he would be looking down with gratitude as well.

Sincerely,

Anne, Shannon, Sean, Caitlin, Lauren
