NHL Feature: "Islander's Community Heroes of the Week: Rachel and Mike Bennett"
"Couple donated over 3,750 meals through proceeds from hockey apparel sales.

The married couple sold their merchandise out of the pro shop at The Rinx and Amity Harbor Sports - that is until COVID-19 shuttered both stores. (Amity Harbor Sports has recently reopened.)
What started as an all-too familiar story of a small business being affected by the coronavirus has instead grown into an inspiring tale of selflessness, positivity and community.
