MINDFUL MOMENTS
OF
OTHER DISTRICT DOINGS
The blind tenants of Selis Manor
on 23rd Street were delighted to
receive generous meal donations
made possible by Speaker Corey
Johnson's office.
VISIONS Community Center staff organized and
arranged for the tenants to pick up their meals
when they were delivered for lunch. VISIONS
Center Senior Director Ann DeShazo coordinated
with VISIONS staff, the tenants association, and
the building management to safely distribute the
meals that were taken back to each apartment. The
tenants enjoyed the unexpected catered hot meals,
and have had glowing reviews for the Council
Speaker and the nonprofit meal donor. Helen Mur-
phy had a special message for Council Speaker
Corey Johnson, thanking him for his generous and
thoughtful donation. "The food was out of this
world... Thank you for the food, it was so kind of
you."

lies.
Sincerely,
Nancy D. Miller
