📣 Honored to Receive the Betty Jane Polanis Award! 🌟

I am humbled and grateful to be this year’s recipient of the Asset Builder Betty Jane Polanis Award from the Orange County Youth Bureau.

This award celebrates those who champion the positive development of our young people — a mission that has been at the heart of my work for decades.

As a candidate for Newburgh City Council Ward 1, I will continue to fight for policies and programs that uplift our youth, empower our families, and strengthen our community.

Together, we can build a Newburgh where every young person has the opportunity to thrive.

Let’s keep saying his name.
Marco Da Great — a great chef whose impact reached far beyond the kitchen.

His legacy lives on in the people he fed, the love he shared, and the community he helped nourish.
Thank you to owner Jay for keeping his candle lit and honoring his memory. 🕯️

GrantForesight stands with our community in remembrance, respect, and gratitude.

🎷 Community. Culture. Connection.
Today we joined neighbors and music lovers for an afternoon of chamber jazz with the HOT WRK Ensemble as part of Community Concerts @ Calvary.

Experiences like this remind us that the arts are essential to community well-being—bringing people together across generations through creativity, culture, and shared space.

At GrantForesight, we proudly support opportunities that enrich minds, uplift spirits, and strengthen community through education and the arts.
