Team WLP Raises over $22,500 for the Ride for Food

It was an incredible day for Women’s Lunch Place (WLP) at the Ride for Food on Sunday, October 6. We are so proud of all of the riders and grateful to everyone who supported Team WLP!

The 19 members of Team WLP raised almost $23,000 and as of October 8, the event raised $424,404 of its $600,000 goal. Wellesley Bank, a long-time partner of WLP, had nine members who raised over $11,000 to support our Healthy Meals Program.

The Ride for Food raises funds for WLP and other partner organizations of Three Squares New England, who supports local organizations dedicated to providing healthy meals for those struggling with food insecurity. All beneficiaries of the event are dedicated to providing healthy meals for people in Massachusetts who struggle with food insecurity. Each rider on Team WLP raised over $1,000 to help WLP provide healthy meals to the women who are experiencing homelessness or poverty in the Greater Boston Area.

Although the Ride for Food is over, there’s still time to help WLP reach our goal! Help WLP end hunger and continue offering healthy meals to the women we serve by making a donation on our team page.
