Hebron Food Pantry Fun Walk A Success

Hebron Food Pantry held its Sixth Annual Fun Walk late in May at Willett Field, Attleboro. Profits from the Walk will be used to purchase food at The Greater Boston Food Bank, where every $1.00 raised buys approximately $20.00 of food at retail prices.

Over 100 walkers participated in the fun-filled events of skill, chance and perseverance along the walk path. Participants earned raffle tickets at each station for the almost 50 donated prizes, gift certificates, event tickets, and the grand prize – $100 Gift Card to Roche Bros. Supermarket! We had a special entertainment from Salt+Light, a group from A Work in Progress Productions!

This year’s walk raised thousands of dollars thanks to our dedicated walkers and to the many generous sponsors listed here: BDL Heating & Cooling, Inc.; G.H. Electrical Service Co., Inc.; Sensata Technologies; AAA Northeast; Attleboro Moose Lodge #463; Coogan Smith, LLP; Dasko Label; EMC Technologies; Engage2Excel; F.A.R. Service Co.; R.S.
