A few of our team members stopped by Racalto’s in Hornell for lunch today to support our friends at The Vincent House 🕊️ We even had a local celebrity moment by snagging a photo with their amazing pastry chef, Chris Lomax!

If you live in or around the Hornell area, stop in before 6 PM tonight (11/10) for a $20 plate of ziti & meatballs (eat in or takeout)—all proceeds to support the amazing hospice care provided by The Vincent House team and its volunteers 🍝

This morning, members of the CareFirstNY team, board, and community partners were honored to attend the Corning Area Chamber of Commerce Annual Awards Breakfast.

We extend our heartfelt congratulations to all of this year’s award recipients—your leadership and commitment continue to strengthen and inspire our community!

This year’s event held special significance for us, as the Chamber introduced the Tali Sutton Legacy Award, honoring the enduring spirit of our late CEO. This award celebrates individuals who exemplify Tali’s remarkable leadership, kindness, and unwavering dedication to serving others 🤍

We are deeply grateful to see Tali’s legacy live on through this meaningful recognition, and we look forward to witnessing the positive impact this award will continue to celebrate in the years ahead!
