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.

Celebrating Hispanic Heritage Month

As the First Lady of Norwalk, Lucia Rilling was drawn to Person to Person for its meaningful work in supporting the community. Now a board member and active supporter, Lucia is particularly passionate about helping immigrants and underserved families access the resources they need to adapt and thrive in a new country. With a unique upbringing and a strong belief in helping others, Lucia is deeply involved in P2P’s efforts, from volunteering at events to guiding the organization’s mission of providing critical support.
