Community Hero of the Month: Remedy Hall Co-Founder Andi Bryant

By Sabrina DammsiBerkshires Staff
WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass.—Remedy Hall founder and board chair Andi Bryant is kicking off the new season of our Community Hero series, as the December Community Hero of the Month. 
 
The Community Hero of the Month is a 12-month series that honors individuals and organizations that have significantly impacted their community. This year's sponsor is Window World of Western Massachusetts. 
 
Bryant co-founded Remedy Hall in 2023 to lessen the financial burden of community members in need by providing essential items that people may be lacking, including hygiene items, cleaning supplies, clothing, bedding, furniture, and other necessities. 
 
In addition, they act as a "stopgap" to help guide people to resources that will provide additional support beyond the tangible items. 
 
"This is everything to me. My family will tell you they don't see me anymore. I spend probably way too much time here making sure that this is neat and clean and provide a compassionate, safe, dignified area for people with need," Bryant said. 
 
"I will have to say the heroes here are really the people that need the help. It takes a lot of courage for them to step forward, and walk in, and ask for help. And what we offer here is just a really safe, really non-judgmental, very dignified location for you to be able to do that." 
 
Remedy Hall's goal is to improve the lives of those facing economic and social challenges who have been exasperated by the effects of the pandemic and the rising cost of living, she said.
