Promoting a good cause, one beer at a time

Screen Shot 2013-03-15 at 7.16.22 AMTodd Ruggere of Grafton is a man on a mission: to drink a beer in all 351 cities and towns in Massachusetts. Sounds tough. But it is not all pleasure. Everywhere he goes he hits up folks for a donation to the Dana Farber/Jimmy Fund. At each stop he writes the name of the town and who or what he is with- like a mule for example. He stopped to Milton.

He was  a made an appearance at the beginning of Katie Conlon’s campaign kickoff event at Steel & Rye on March 10. Milton is the 86th town Todd has visited.  His fundraising effort has drawn local and national attention, including a profile in The Boston Globe on the day of the Conlon event.  For more information about Todd, please visit his facebook page (Mass Beertour).  The Globe article can be found at: http://www.bostonglobe.com/metro/2013/03/10/grafton-man-having-beer-all-massachusetts-towns-benefit-cancer-research/RZW3qR1nurLGnkbXNYjK4H/story.html .
