On Saturday, May 6th, students and family members spent the afternoon serving at the Harding Ford Vision Food Pantry in Jamaica, NY. They helped to distribute food and serve over 500 people. Donations recently collected at Molloy in the form of feminine hygiene products were also distributed to patrons.
When asked about the day, Mr. Corrado said, “To see Stanner parents, siblings, and current Molloy students coming together to serve others in need is yet another shining example of how we live our mission at Molloy. Our pillars were on full display today as our Stanner families took joyful and hopeful action to address food insecurities right in our own backyard. I continue to be inspired by our students and their willingness to embrace their roles as servant leaders.”
Eloradana Francisco ‘25 shared, “It was great serving on Saturday. I feel like I have been changed because I definitely loved giving people food and seeing the smile on their faces. I would definitely do it again. I created change by feeding families that needed help and created happiness in those moments and it was a very enjoyable experience.” Adam Baksch ‘25 felt similarly. He shared, “I have been changed by this experience because it made me feel like a better person. It makes me want to volunteer again in the future and my family and I had a great time. I know my family changed for the better by this act of kindness and it made us see things from a different point of view. I hope other families could go out and do the same from this.”
Thank you to all who took time out of their day to participate in this wonderful act of service!
