Why is Food Bank’s mission important to you?
What was your most memorable moment while serving with Food Bank?
"Whether it was serving breakfast to seniors pre-COVID, or helping at the Grab-and-Go Pantry distributions, I was always warmed by how appreciative everyone I came in contact with was."
Tell us about a meal that is special to you and your family.
"For me and my wife, it's Sunday morning bagels and lox breakfast, while sitting in front of the TV watching CBS Sunday Morning and reading the Sunday New York Times."
Who inspires you to serve?
"My parents who, when I was growing up in Queens, instilled in me the value of helping others regardless of what rung of society's ladder we happen to occupy."
