Why Rigby Exists
She fed hundreds of families every week.
Then she couldn't call her own.
Jim's mother started a food pantry that still serves hundreds of families in New Jersey. When she moved to Oregon, she left behind her Italian family, her community, her world. Dementia made it harder. Spam calls made her phone unusable — and the real calls from family stopped getting through.
Jim became her connection to the world. He stood beside her on every call, whispering names she'd forgotten, suggesting things to say, making sure the people she loved still felt her presence.
Rigby exists so that what happened to Jim's mother doesn't happen to anyone else. Where everyone belongs.
