'Gives Of His Time For Children' | Bristol-Warren Hero

BRISTOL-WARREN, RI — 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.

This submission comes from Stephen Cavalieri, who nominated Warren Renshausen. Renshausen is an active member of the Knights of Columbus who was previously an officer, and is now the administrator of the chapter. He volunteers his time for local youth sports programs, and works to raise money through the Knights of Columbus to donate to charities.

"[He] gives of his time to build children's self-esteem and allow them to participate in fun and exercise," Cavalieri wrote.

Thank you for all you do, Warren!
