Supporting Our Community

In honor of Benjamin Vince Nathaniel Pitt

Our Inspiration

We are honored to support the American Red Cross Blood Drive in memory of our beloved son and grandson, Benjamin Vince Nathaniel Pitt, affectionately known as Vinnie or Sugar Bear. Diagnosed with Transposition of the Great Arteries (TGA) at 20 weeks and born prematurely at just under 25 weeks, Vinnie required daily blood transfusions during his 40 days with us. His strength left an indelible mark on his mother and all who knew him, inspiring a mission to serve the community and honor his life in a meaningful way. Vinnie taught us that life is precious and every moment together is a gift. 

Our Purpose

Join us in supporting vital causes—whether through donations, volunteering, or sharing our message. We carry on Vinnie's legacy by championing the importance of blood donation and community support.
