Ray Aramini was raised in the greater Willimantic area and graduated from Windham High School. He worked for two years in the ghettos of South Kingston, Jamaica as a volunteer. Later, Ray rode his bike around the rural United States for a year and a half to see the "Unseen America".

Through Ray's travels he learned much and chose to return to the greater Willimantic area.  Ray has worked in Willimantic as a Social Worker and as a Juvenile Probation Officer.  He is a member of the Board of Directors at the Covenant Soup Kitchen and volunteers at the kitchen 2-3 times a week. 

Ray Aramini is a familiar face on the streets of the community and sees those in need rising in number.  These are not faceless people, but rather friends and neighbors.  We need to help.
