Make Change for Change "Pub Crawl" says Thank You!

"Make Change for Change held its first annual Pub Crawl on Saturday. It was a huge success. The tickets were sold out and the bars we went to are donating 10% of our purchases to the charity.

A huge thank you goes out to everyone that came out Saturday night. You are all so much fun and I want to hang out with you all the time! You made the night a success and you give us hope that we can make a big difference to those in need in MA.

I big thank you goes to the bars that hosted us: Alumni, Teddy Gallagher's, Rome and Jimmy D's. You are all so generous for taking on 50 crawlers!

We will definitely do this again!
