Reach Out America will sponsor a fundraiser with the Lt. Gov. Antonio Delgado as guest speaker.
“We are excited to welcome Lt. Gov. Delgado because he is actively involved in creating programs to encourage young people to work purposefully to serve their communities and is committed to combatting racism throughout the state.” ROA President Patty Katz said. “He is not only empathetic about the needs of New Yorkers. He is a thoughtful and energetic problem solver who brings many skills to his office. We think it’s a great opportunity for Great Neckers to get to know more about him!”
Delgado grew up in Schenectady, graduated from Colgate University with honors, and earned a Rhodes Scholarship to Oxford. He then went to law school at Harvard and served in Congress, representing the 19th Congressional District for two years before becoming lieutenant governor in 2022.
Reach Out America is a progressive, grassroots, non-profit organization that promotes civic engagement through education and community connections.
Celebrating its 20th year as a Great Neck organization, ROA holds monthly meetings from September through May with guest speakers with expertise in various timely topics.
“The Inn of Great Neck will provide a delicious brunch and is a comfortable venue for meeting and greeting!” fundraiser chairperson Harriet Becker said. “The cost will be $125 per person and for extra fun, there will be raffles for great prizes. Space is limited, so don’t miss out.”
Checks should be made to “Reach Out America” and sent to ROA, 9 Cedar Drive, Great Neck, NY 11021.
