Cohen and Wolf Volunteers at Dorothy Day Hospitality House

On Friday, April 10th, a group of current and former Cohen and Wolf employees had the privilege of preparing to-go meals and serving guests at Dorothy Day Hospitality House. This effort was part of our firm’s 75th Anniversary initiative, focused on giving back to the community that has supported us for so many years.

Together, we served more than 150 hot meals and 150 cold meals, along with desserts and hot coffee. We also helped distribute community-donated food items requested by guests to take home, including fresh breads and fruits.

Dorothy Day Hospitality House plays a vital role in the Danbury community, offering daily meals to individuals in need. Modeled after the Houses of Hospitality founded by Dorothy Day during the Great Depression, the organization operates entirely through the dedication of volunteers, with no paid staff.

“We try to add some light and hopefully share a smile along with some encouragement with each of our guests each day,” said Joseph Walsh, who has been volunteering at Dorothy Day each month for the last 35 years.

We are grateful to have been part of this meaningful experience and extend our sincere thanks to the volunteers who gave their time and energy to prepare and serve the meals:

Joseph Walsh and Ann Fowler-Cruz (leaders); Jason A. Buchsbaum, Deborah Cahill, Pamela Drucker, Jannie Grullon, Ellen Sutliffe Hain, Cynthia Guerra-Holguin, Vickie Kirn, Neil Marcus, Katherine Mygan, Joshua Pedreira, Kelly Reed, and Melody Torres.
