Huge thanks for showing out for FISH food bank
On Tuesday the 17th, we witnessed our biggest Provide to Ride event ever! Thanks to the incredible generosity of our guests and community, the benefit for Hood River’s FISH Food Bank generated an outstanding 9,100 pounds of food donations and $38,726 in proceeds from lift ticket sales.
While past events have seen excellent support, this year broke all records for both food and monetary contributions. Guests could participate by either bringing 24 cans of food or two hams in exchange for a free lift ticket or purchasing a specially priced $49 lift ticket, of which $44 was donated directly to FISH.
Marianne Durkan, Board Chair of FISH Food Bank, expressed her heartfelt gratitude:
“We are overwhelmed with gratitude. To Mt. Hood Meadows and the incredible shred community, thank you for showing up in ways we could never have imagined. This year’s record-breaking Provide to Ride event has provided food and funds that will make an enormous difference for the FISH Food Bank and the Hood River community.”
