Last Wednesday I spent 10 hours with City Futures, between preparing for and working the Support the Future Gala. It was a huge success! Awards were presented to ACCION New York and Carlton Brown for their incredible influence in New York City. Jimmy Breslin made a special appearance and I’m sure that most people know him way better than I do. When I asked my dad, he knew who I was talking about right away. I must say, he made a really enjoyable speech. It was great being amongst so many successful people and I’m glad I got to be apart of it. It was held on the Lower East Side at the Angel Orensanz Foundation, which is a synagogue more so used for events now. The building is absolutely gorgeous and if you’re ever in NY I suggest at least stopping by! It has incredible charm in all of its imperfections and a bright red stucco exterior that makes it hard to miss. Seems like a world away from Long Island!
