ICYMI: Northport Heroes Local Roundup

NORTHPORT, NY — When times are tough, heroes emerge. We all know someone who's making a difference right now as we live through unprecedented and changing times.

Here at Patch, we've launched an initiative to help recognize these heroes making a difference in their communities. Together with Ring, we're working to let all your neighbors know about these outstanding people and their stories.

Below are a couple of local hero profiles from this week:

• Christine at Bagelport E. Northport NY, who helped prepare meals for front-line workers at Huntington Hospital during the coronavirus
• Thomas DiPietro, a health care worker who worked overtime during the COVID-19 pandemic

Thank you for all you do, Christine and Thomas!
