Upcoming Events

Make a Gift to Riverside Community Care in Support of Patrick McEnaney’s ‘Mountain Lakes 100’ Ultramarathon Run

Dr. Patrick McEnaney, former Riverside Board Member and UMass surgeon at Milford Regional Medical Center, will be running the Mountain Lakes 100-miler in Oregon on September 21-22. This ultramarathon is deeply personal for Patrick, as he runs to honor the memory of his two brothers who were lost to suicide. For him, this race is more than a physical challenge; it is a dedicated mission to raise awareness and funds for suicide prevention.

Please consider making a gift to Riverside in honor of Patrick’s run. Click HERE for more information or send a check to:
