Get involved
A community can and will come together to support its neighbors in need. Here’s how to be part of it.
Give to a neighbor in need
Since our founding, Friends of Feeney has provided over $340,000 to more than 155 local families. That impact would not be possible without the generosity of individuals and businesses who trust in our mission.
Friends of Feeney is a qualified 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization. Tax ID 83-4404706.
Volunteer and march with us
We love having friends march beside the #BeAGoodFriend float. At the 2025 Hartford St. Patrick’s Day Parade, dozens of you made it our largest parade group ever, with thousands of onlookers cheering along the route.
Want to march, help out at an event or bring a gift to the toy drive? Let us know and we’ll be in touch.
Tell us you’d like to helpSponsor an event
Sponsors make our parades possible each year, from building and towing the float to hosting the after-party. In 2025, local businesses and organizations opened their doors as toy drive collection hosts.
Interested in sponsoring the annual golf tournament, a parade or the toy drive? Reach out and we’ll talk.
