Empowering families and individuals toward thriving, hunger-free homes

Celebrating Our Mobile Pantry Donors

On Tuesday, September 24, we hosted a reception at our Stamford warehouse to honor the donors who made our mobile food pantries possible. We celebrated with food, laughter, and gratitude, recognizing the supporters behind the expansion of our P2P on Wheels program.

Former P2P Board Chair Mike Riccardi’s leadership and a $240,000 grant from the Steven & Alexandra Cohen Foundation helped bring the second mobile pantry to life.
