This week began with a meaningful discussion with the administrator of Holy Spirit Parish in the Bronx, Fr. Eric Cruz of Catholic Charities Archdiocese of New York University of Notre Dame, focusing on outreach initiatives and programs that serve the needs of our District.
Additionally, I met with Carole Conklin, the Chairwoman of Mayor Mike Spano's Disability Advisory Board, to discuss significant advancements in disability legislation and initiatives aimed at fostering inclusivity and accessibility for all.
This week also features a momentous ribbon-cutting ceremony as Ridge Hill's ownership gathered to celebrate the official opening of Town Square. This new addition is set to become a dynamic space for community events and activities.
Moreover, my team attended the YMCA Community Thanksgiving Dinner, where we joined nearly 300 local residents in celebrating gratitude and community spirit. This special event provided a festive meal for those in need, exemplifying the power of community connection.
Finally, my office was proud to volunteer at The Matthew Wallace Foundation’s Thanksgiving Grab-n-Go event, where we helped distribute turkeys, bags of groceries, and $50 ACME gift cards to the first 100 families in our community. It was a heartwarming experience to support those in need this holiday season.
I again call for an immediate and permanent ceasefire in Gaza and Lebanon! I urge all involved parties to engage in negotiations for a lasting peace agreement, which includes the release of all hostages and prisoners. Additionally, it is imperative that the international community promptly addresses the hunger, starvation, and displacement affecting the entire population of Gaza, and now Northern Israel, Lebanon, and the West Bank. From the start of this conflict, nearly 50,000 have died, over 150,000 are injured, and over 2 million displaced from their homes. This must stop immediately! |
