Part Food Drive, Part Madcap Scavenger Hunt!
Join Bike to the Sea and Bread of Life to show thankfulness by feeding those in need. This year, your help is especially needed with the suspension of SNAP benefits for over one million residents including 330,000 children in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. 1 in 2 households in Suffolk County live with food insecurity. YOU CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE!
