September is Hunger Action Month:  Walk a Mile for a Meal!

Help fight local hunger by participating in "Walk a Mile for a Meal" on Sunday, September 27th  between 1:00 and 2:00 p.m.

This "food raiser" is sponsored by the Big Y and starts at the store. Participants will purchase a bag of groceries and walk one mile to the New Milford Food Bank located at 40 Main St. Last year, the Food Bank gave out over 8500 bags of non-perishables to local households.  Help is needed to replenish the shelves!
This event is ideal for youth, civic, church or Scout groups, but all walkers are welcome.

Please register by calling 860-355-6079 x1.  Food can also be dropped off weekdays from 8:00 a.m. - 4 :00 p.m. at the Social Services office.
