ABOUT

SANDY HOOK CENTER

'And those who were seen dancing were thought to be insane
by those who could not hear the music.'

Life + pain = suffering...
We brave on.
We saw light, 
Accepted guidance.
​accepted love.
Hope.
Kindness.
 Kindness from a stranger.
It saved us.
Shields us.
Inspires us.
Gratitude,
Paying it forward.  
Legacy. 
With hope,
life sustains,
'eternal..
It's easy to be kind.

Be kind.

​Live.

IF YOU  REALLY  WANT  TO  KNOW  WHY..

THIS WAS ME.

September 26, 1986
Lahey Clinic
​Burlington, MA.
WE'VE BEEN SIDELINED THESE PAST 3YEARS FIGHTING A PROSECUTOR WHO AFFORDED HARVEY WEINSTEIN, AND THE TRUMP CHILDREN A PASS FOR THEIR CRIMINAL ACTIONS, AND THEY'VE DONE THE SAME TO US AS WELL.
The Manhattan DA and 'his band of idiots' have manipulated New York for far too long for their own opportunistic agenda. 
"Suborn Perjury" and "Fraud on the Courts" is not a tactic, Cy- its a crime.

*OUR PROBLEM ISN'T WITH MS. SHIELDS, SHE WAS A DA PAWN.  ALTHOUGH SHE DID COMMIT PERJURY, ADA ANGELICA GREGORY WAS THE OPPORTUNIST PROSECUTOR WHO SUBORNED PERJURY FOR A 'BAD WIN.'  IT WAS ALSO IN COMPLICIT WITH OUR PUBLIC DEFENDER/ DANIEL STERN, AND THEN JON STOMBELY (WHO WAS REPLACED AT THE END, AND HAD LESS THAN 21 DAYS TO PREPARE.); OR OUR ATTORNEY WAS JUST INCOMPETENT.  WE HAD HIRED ERIC FRANZ ESQ. BUT HAD PREFERRED DONATING THE ESTIMATED $50,000- $75,000 TO SANDY HOOK, AND CONTINUE OUR SELF FUNDED GUN REFORM INITIATIVE.
 
HELL, I'D RATHER BURN THE MONEY THAN TO BE EXTORTED BY CORRUPTION.

#STOPGUNSCHOOLVIOLENCE

The Sandy Hook CenTer was conceptualized the day of the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting, and approved one week later. 

The CenTer honors the many victims of violence, and encourages healing through education, resources, and support. 
/  HONOR. 
​
/  EDUCATION.

/  
HEAL.

/  SUPPORT.
  



#STOPGUNSCHOOLVIOLENCE  is  a  legitamite reason  2  call  2 action

WHO

The KathyRinaldi Hope Foundation was created to fight abuse and prior to Sandy Hook's tragedy of 2012 assisted like minded organizations.  We didn't need to 're-create' the wheel, nor did we feel a need to compete with the limited amount of available funding.  We built homes, we hosted lunches, and we organized ways to reach those in need.  

With Newtown, CT.'s village suffering what is notably the most horrific attack on children this country had seen, we were compelled to do more than assist, but felt compelled to lead.  With our hands extended and open to give, we offered our resources to Newtown- specifically to Rebecca Kowalski.  We were once in her shoes and we knew her pain all too well.  Additionally, we also knew how best to help not just Rebecca, but to all 26families.  

On 12/21/14 we came to Newtown, CT. and have not left.
