Pass It Along sponsors Walk-a-thon

Newton —Newton Memorial Hospital and the Sparta Elks have teamed up with Pass It Along to unite our community and walk for a worthy cause. People of all ages will meet at the Sussex County Fair Grounds on Sunday, Oct. 29 to help raise money and awareness for Pass It Along’s mission of creating and managing life-changing programs that benefit our community. Rain or shine, walk as a team or as an individual. Prizes will be awarded to the team and individual with the highest donations. Collect pledges and help Pass It Along continue to provide outreach to children and families in need, enrichment and literacy programs, environmental preservation, animal care, relief for the homeless, as well as programs for the youth. Pledges will help maintain and strengthen these programs as well as fund up and coming programs such as Ma’s Meals, Girl Power and Christmas Around The County. Registration begins at noon. The walk begins at 1 p.m. Fun, food and festivities to follow. Come out and support the organization that strives to support the community.
