Gruvman, who spent over 30 years as an attorney, now serves as the Volunteer Coordinator of Long Island Cares, overseeing volunteer operations across Long Island. He began volunteering at local food banks after leaving his law firm due to burnout and a lack of fulfillment. Over time, he increased his commitment, volunteering up to four days a week and taking on informal leadership roles. He guided new volunteers, led warehouse tours, and worked closely with corporate groups to understand the impact of their efforts. Despite challenges, Gruvman acknowledges that food insecurity is an ongoing issue affecting hundreds of thousands of Long Islanders.
