A Personal Reason Behind the Support Connection Walk NY
For Paul Viggiano, the Support Connection Walk NY carries deep personal meaning.
“My grandmother is a two time survivor of ovarian cancer, and helping people affected by ovarian and breast cancer is near and dear to my heart,” Viggiano shared. “This is not just about my grandma. This is about all of the women and families who are affected by these terrible diseases.”
Like many people in our community, Paul has seen firsthand how cancer touches families in lasting ways. When he first learned about Support Connection, he was inspired by the organization’s kindness, compassion, and tireless dedication to helping others through some of life’s most difficult moments.
That inspiration translated into action. After raising $1,500 the previous year, Paul set a goal of $2,000 for this year’s walk. Thanks to collective support from A.G. Williams Painting Company leadership and colleagues, that goal was achieved.
