Hi everyone! Kevin and I are riding in the Steeple Chase again this Saturday. I'm riding 20 miles and Kevin is riding 50! Our goal is to raise $100 for Willimantic non-profits. Every donation we get is being matched 100% by a friend of HST - which is so generous! If you have a couple of bucks to spare we would appreciate it!
The Steeple Chase is a fundraiser for 3 local non-profit social service agencies, Windham Area Interfaith Ministry, Windham Region No Freeze Project and Perception Programs, that help people when they need it most. The Windham Area Interfaith Ministry, is comprised of 39 faith communities, provides fuel assistance, clothing, and furniture to area needy families. Windham Region No Freeze Project provides adults who are homeless overnight shelter. Their goal is to help clients obtain basic resources such as food, clothing, case management and transportation. Perception Programs offers treatment, case management, education and housing to people with substance abuse and co-occurring disorders, adults involved in the criminal justice system, and people living with AIDS. Providing quality services is the trademark of all 3 agencies. WE NEED YOUR HELP to raise money to meet the increased needs of the clients we service. Please ride with us and raise money for your neighbors, friends and family.
