Griffin Kapelus is a college student at the University of Vermont in Burlington, VT. 

Griffin Kapelus grew up on the Upper West Side of Manhattan with his two older sisters and a much loved family dog named Simon.

Griffin Kapelus was born and raised in New York City and is currently a student enrolled at the University of Vermont in Burlington, VT. 

Griffin was raised to recognize the importance of volunteerism and community service, and as a young adult he has incorporated those values into his life.

During the global health crisis, Griffin was a volunteer at West Side Campaign Against Hunger, not for profit organization in New York City that works to alleviate hunger by ensuring that all New Yorkers have access with dignity to a choice of healthy food and supportive services.
 
In the Summer of 2021, Griffin Kapelus was a volunteer at Feeding Chittenden, a not for profit organization created to fight hunger and food insecurity faced by households throughout Chittenden County. Today, Feeding Chittenden serves more than 12,000 people annually through a variety of programs.

While taking part-time classes at Hunter College, Griffin developed an interest in learning more about urban issues and income inequality. These studies inspired a greater commitment to taking a more active role in responding to these seemingly intractable social problems by volunteering and philanthropy.
