Real Estate Financier Steven Vornea Issues Challenge to Community:
It's Time to Give Back
WESTCHESTER, N.Y. (Business Wire EON) July 7, 2008 --
During the week, Steven Vornea closes multi-million dollar real estate
deals. On Saturdays, he spends his time delivering food to the needy of
Westchester County, N.Y.
"There is nothing more fulfilling than seeing the heartwarming smile of
a child when I walk through the door with much-needed food," said Mr.
Vornea. "It's my opinion that those who are in the position to give back
to the community must do so."
Mr. Vornea, a successful real estate financier based in Westchester,
N.Y., volunteers for Hillside Food Outreach, which exists to provide
food to those in need throughout Westchester and Putnam Counties. It is
their mission to deliver food to people who are, for whatever reason,
unable to access local food pantries.
"It is Hillside's objective to meet the needs of the poor and destitute
of Westchester and Putnam Counties by not only delivering food, but by
fostering friendships," added Mr. Vornea. "It amazes me to see the
generosity of so many people and yet we haven't even scratched the
surface of what is really needed to help feed the needy of our
community."
Hillside Food Outreach is a grassroots 501(c)(3) not-for-profit food
pantry established in 1993 to help feed 20 elderly people, in
Westchester County, who were in need of food assistance, but were unable
to access local food pantries. Today, Hillside has brought together over
350 volunteers to home deliver to over 1650 Westchester and Putnam
County residents in need. Hillside provides food assistance to families
with children, frail elderly, disabled and housebound individuals.
