About this Event

The Heart of Rhode Island was founded in March 2022…and it is STILL going strong!

With 150+ attendees each month and a sell-out streak since September 2023, this gathering has become Rhode Island’s go-to space for authentic connection, community, and collaboration.

Led by me and our incredible Heart of RI Committee:
Cathy Andreozzi, Dawn Apajee, Mark Berger, Aaron Bishop, Michael Cabral, Elizabeth Hamilton, Xander Honor, Lisa Jones, Sarah McCooey, Stephanie McNamara, John Pagliarini, Stacey Silva, and Bridget VanDemark!

This is where real relationships begin.
Where ideas come to life.
And where Rhode Island’s changemakers unite.

Join us on Wednesday, August 19th!

Our August 19th Heart of Rhode Island Breakfast is proudly sponsored by:
Eve Rabinowitz, Lamel Moore, Hassan Souto, and Communities for People!

Thank you for your commitment to community and for helping us continue to create a space where meaningful connections thrive. We are so grateful for your partnership and excited to spotlight the incredible work being done through Communities for People!

We’re also incredibly thankful to our generous hosts at CIC Providence, special thanks to Noah Yandow, Ramon Torres, and the entire CIC team for always welcoming us with open arms.

And of course…a HUGE thank-you to Fundati Coffee and Alicia DeCastro for fueling our mornings with locally roasted warmth and heart!

And to Maria Torres and All Seasons Catering for providing a delicious breakfast that brings us all together around the table! Your partnership helps set the tone for connection from the very first moment.
