Welcome our newest Board Member, Kathleen Santucci: 

"I am a Community Liaison for Glen Cove Center for Nursing and Rehab and Emerge Nursing and Rehab at Glen Cove since May 2019. I work to form relationships within the community to help raise awareness about both facilities, and to provide education and resources to primarily the senior population within the community. Our facilities are both short-term sub-acute rehabilitation and nursing facilities. Both facilities offer the same therapeutic services, but Emerge has a specialized Neuro Rehabilitation Program and Glen Cove Center offers a specialized Cardio Pulmonary Rehabilitation Program. I help bridge the gap between the community and our two facilities."

"I am a resident of Locust Valley for the past 28 years and have worked at Friends Academy, Grenville Baker Boys & Girls Club and the Locust Valley School District.

I am the current Treasurer of the Locust Valley Rotary Club, on the Board of National Aging in Place Council - Long Island Chapter (NAIPC) and a member of Gerontology Professionals of NY (GPNY) and I am on the Committee-at-large for Phoenix Rising!"

She is looking forward to helping the Human Service Agencies in Glen Cove through the IAC!

The Glen Cove Salutes project honors active duty and veterans of the United States Armed Forces. Custom banners including photo, branch, and service years are displayed side by side on antique lampposts in beautiful Morgan Park from Memorial Day to Labor Day.  In this online exhibit, you will find reflections of the honored veterans submitted by their family and friends.

For almost a year, Glen Cove High School has hosted its very first i Am My Sister Club. The students and faculty have been so supportive of the club and the organization. We are so excited to have the opportunity to support them just as they have supported us over this last year.

i Am My Sister is hosting a College Kickstarter for the Glen Cove HS young ladies and gentlemen that will be going away to college this coming fall. We’re coming to celebrate their accomplishments and make sure they are equipped with everything they need to make a successful transition into their new role as college freshmen.

It’s a party y’all!! A party with food, music, and of course gifts. Every student will leave with a basket stuffed with the school and dorm necessities to get started off right. They will also be matched with a mentor to support them through their first year and beyond.

We are asking you to partner with us! Make a tax-deductible donation to help with basket supplies. Donating is easy! You can go online to our website https://iammysister.org/donate/ , use Zelle: info@iAmMySister.org, or Cash App: $iAmMySisterInc. You can also purchase an item from the Amazon Gift Registry.

Your support doesn’t only help the students, but also parents and caregivers. Sending kids off to college although an exciting time can also be a financial struggle. Help us make the load lighter, so they can focus on what lies ahead.

I hope this E mail finds you well and that you had a happy Easter holiday.

I thought you and others who remember Abel might like to know that his Permanent Resident Application was approved and he was given a Green Card. It arrived in the mail the week before Easter. I waited until we were out for dinner on Easter Sunday to give it to him at the restaurant. Here are some photos of the moment when he realized what was in the envelope. Naturally he is very happy. We appreciate the IAC's support and prayers.

Marco continues to be very happy in Guatemala. I divide my time between my place in Hudson and my apartment in Guatemala City. Marco and I have spent many long weekends traveling around Central America. When I return there in the summer he and I are going to open a " coffee house " in San Antonio near the Pacific Coast. He talked me into it because it sounds like an interesting adventure.

We never forget you all. When I do get to a meeting in the future I will have gifts for everyone.

Best to all, Bill, Marco & Abel

April is #NationalFairHousingMonth

National Fair Housing Month celebrates the passage of the Fair Housing Act in April, 1968, a national law that prohibits discrimination in the sale, rental and financing of housing based on race, color, national origin, religion, and gender. The Act was later amended to include protections for people with disabilities and families with children.

Fair Housing Month reminds us that the principle of fair housing is not only state and national law, but a fundamental human concept and entitlement for all people. As a community we welcome all good neighbors, recognizing the contributions and richness tendered by a wide variety of people from diverse backgrounds, colors, ethnicities or religious traditions.
