Welcome to my fundraising page for the 11th annual Will Bike 4 Food! This cycling event raises funds and awareness for The Food Bank of Western Massachusetts. Every $1 raised will provide 4 meals for a neighbor in need. Contributions of any size are appreciated.
I will be doing my miles for the Food Bank in South Dakota from Sept 12-18. Andy and I are on a bike trip through the Badlands with Bicycle Adventures. You can follow my rides on Facebook. Andy will be riding in the Food Bank Ride when we get back.
All donations are tax deductible. Go, UUSGS Riders, and THANK YOU!

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.
