Robin Hood, one of the city's largest poverty-fighting and philanthropic foundations, held its annual Robin Hood Heroes breakfast on Tuesday.

The event celebrates the contributions of people and organizations that make a difference in the fight against poverty.

This year, three New Yorkers were honored: Alisa Pratt, Roy Castro and Anthony Enriquez.

Enriquez is a defense attorney for child refugees facing deportation.

He is also the co-founder of the Immigration Children's Advocates Relief Effort, also known as ICARE; it's a coalition of legal service organizations that connect children facing deportation with legal services.

Enriquez joined Pat Kiernan on Mornings On 1, along with the CEO of Robin Hood, Wes Moore.

Honoree Alisa Pratt is the founder and leader of the McKinley Clovers, a girls step team in the Bronx. She spent two decades serving at different nonprofits in New York.

Roy Castro is a formerly incarcerated entrepreneur, who opened his own ice cream company in the Bronx with the help of Strive, a job placement and career development agency. He currently serves as a member of their board of directors.
