Monte’s March IX

Description

On November 19 & 20, WRSI – The River’s Monte Belmonte will be leading his annual march against hunger through the Pioneer Valley, during his Monte’s March event. For those two-days, Monte, Congressman Jim McGovern, and a number of their supporters, will push a shopping cart 43 miles from Springfield to Greenfield to raise awareness and funds for food insecurity in our region. Supporters are encouraged to donate money to benefit The Food Bank of Western Massachusetts. Last year, the event raised more than $258,000. You can become involved in the March itself by raising money and marching as an individual, team or a virtual marcher. We also welcome any schools interested in the March to hold food or fund drives at school, host your own “mini-March,” or cheer on the Marchers on 11/19 or 11/20.
