Dear Neighbors,
This week, we continued our commitment to supporting our community by celebrating a new Councilmember, hosting a Movie Night, and giving out more Hot Meals! It is always a joy to engage with our amazing community and ensure we keep providing valuable events that meet the needs of our constituents.
In this newsletter, you will find details about the district events that took place this week, along with information on various upcoming events we have planned.
It is an honor to represent you in the New York City Council and continue fighting to keep our community safe, healthy, and prosperous!
Sincerely,
Councilwoman Kristy Marmorato
District 13, Bronx
Cultural Connections in City Hall!
 |
Councilmember Balidemaj, an elected official of Albanian heritage serving in Germany, represents a powerful story of civic leadership and cultural pride. His visit was a meaningful moment of international connection and shared heritage.
It was a privilege to exchange ideas and experiences across borders, and to celebrate the contributions of the global Albanian community in public service.
A special thank you to our friend Mark Gjonaj for facilitating this visit and building bridges that bring leaders together.
Movie Under the Stars!
 |
Our Movie Under the Stars was a hit this Saturday!
The weather held up just in time, creating the perfect backdrop for a fun and relaxing evening with families from across District 13.
It was wonderful to see so many neighbors come together — with lawn chairs, blankets, and popcorn in hand — to enjoy a great movie under the open sky.
Thank you to everyone who joined us and helped make the night so special.
Stay tuned — more summer events are on the way!
Hot Meals Across D13!

Just last week, we proudly served more than 1,000 hot meals to seniors across District 13!
These meals were distributed with care at several key community hubs, including St. Benedict’s, Friends of Pelham Parkway, Schuyler Hill Civic Association, Open Hand Association, Mary Clancy Pantry, Throggs Neck Houses, and RAIN Boston Road.
As we move into June, we're bringing even more meals, events, and essential services to our neighbors throughout D13.
Let’s keep the momentum going!

A massive tree fell and was blocking the crosswalk on Pelham Parkway North and Cruger Ave.
Our team hot right on it this morning and NYC Parks handled it and removed the dangerous tree!
