“At Dutchess Outreach, we believe that even in the hardest moments, there is room for hope,” said Renee Fillette-Miccio, Executive Director of Dutchess Outreach. “By partnering with the Red Cross, we can bring that hope to life — through fresh, locally sourced ingredients and meals made with care. Every plate we serve is a promise that our community will always stand together. When emergencies strike, we’re here to remind our neighbors that they are never alone.”
