Naomi Campbell teams with Cipriani for holiday food drive

Supermodel-turned-philanthropist Naomi Campbell has partnered with Cipriani Restaurants NYC for her first “Nourishment with Naomi” holiday food drive.

Campbell and the hospitality brand are donating 1,000 food gift-bags to five hospitals across New York City, including Mt. Sinai, Montefiore, Harlem Hospital, Coney Island Hospital and Elmhurst Hospital.

Campbell, a longtime friend of the Cipriani family, said the partnership was a “natural fit” and thanked frontline medical workers.

“Thank you for devoting yourself to being a frontline worker during the pandemic of COVID-19. I wanted to acknowledge and appreciate the risk you have been taking these past nine months to keep New York City safe. Please enjoy this small token of appreciation as a form of gratitude for your hard work and efforts during these difficult times,” Campbell said.

Each hospital will receive 200 baskets of meals between Monday and Tuesday.
