State Senator Frank Padavan (right) started a busy Saturday by participating in a five-mile-walk fundraiser for the Queens Centers for Progress (QCP).
The “Walk With Me” event on April 5 began and ended at the group’s headquarters at 81-15 164th Street in Jamaica. Participants made the annual round-trip slog to Kissena Park to support the center’s mission of helping the developmentally disabled.
This year’s walk honored the memory of Christopher Postiglione, a city Department of Environmental Protection worker, who was killed while on the job.
