Project Description
A few weeks ago, Paul Felleti and his partners at Avocado’s Kitchen came together with local dignitaries, school officials and members of the North Babylon Chamber of Commerce for a very special ribbon cutting ceremony and fundraiser for eighteen year old David Reisinger.
Then yesterday, Thursday July 18th at 1pm, Babylon Town Supervisor Rich Schaffer, NYS Senator Monica Martinez, Deputy Babylon Town Supervisor Tony Martinez, Councilman Terrance McSweeney and members of the North Babylon Chamber of Commerce came together at Avocados Kitchen 1143 Deer Park Avenue, North Babylon, NY 11703, to present the final fundraising tallies – over ten thousand four hundred dollars – to the recent North Babylon High School Graduate.
Avocado’s Kitchen pledged to donate 30% of all proceeds during the event to the fund – which came out to $1,060.00. For those who couldn’t attend, they also set up and facilitated a GoFundMe online donation portal page, which accumulated an additional $9,925.00 (as of the time of this writing).
David is a recent graduate of North Babylon High School whose mother passed away during COVID and whose father is terminally ill with cancer. David graduated not only, with a Diploma from North Babylon HS but also with a certificate of completion from Boces as a Welder. David and his 3 brothers are hoping to stay in the family home and support each other through these trying times.
The funds raised from the grand opening celebration and the “GO FUND ME” fundraiser will be a great help to David starting the next phase of his life as a welder and to contribute to the family home.
