Center Door Pantry Leaders Go Undeterred: Bedford Heroes

BEDFORD-KATONAH, NY — When times are tough, heroes emerge. We all know someone who's making a difference right now as we live through unprecedented times. Here at Patch, we've launched an initiative to help recognize these everyday heroes.

This submission comes from Losa of Pound Ridge, who nominated Clare Murray and Nicole Sorgi.

Name of the nominee:

Clare Murray and Nicole Sorgi

Are the nominees considered "essential workers"?

Yes

What do the nominees do for work?

Executive Director and Operations Manager

Why do you believe the nominees should be recognized or honored?

They have been working day after day, staying late and helping everyone who come to the Community Center for Help. We have had 5 times the number of visits to the Center Door Pantry since this crisis hit And if wasn’t for Clare and Nicole we would not be able to keep open 5 days a week.

What's one thing you want everyone to know about your heroes?

Clare has been a dedicated leader and willing to jump in and help whenever needed. Nicole only began as our Operations manager in January and was immediately thrown into this COVID model of serving our clients, and she has done it with such ease and always with a smile on her face.

Thank you for all that you do, Clare Murray and Nicole Sorgi!
