I'm riding the Will Bike 4 Food fundraiser with my new teammates at Tighe & Bond. But I'm also supporting many of my old teammates at Hampshire College. Regardless, we'll all be riding together and donating generously to the awesome and important Food Bank of Western Massachusetts. They provide meals to our neighbors in need. Please donate, even if it's just a little. You can always come back for more!

Since 1982, The Food Bank of Western Massachusetts has been feeding our neighbors in need and leading the community to end hunger. We distribute food to our member agencies in Berkshire, Franklin, Hampden and Hampshire counties. These independent pantries, meal sites and shelters are on the front lines of emergency food assistance in our region, playing a crucial role helping individuals, families, seniors and children. Every $1 donated to The Food Bank can purchase 4 meals for a family who needs them most.
