The West Orange St. Patrick’s Day Parade has been extremely fortunate over the years to have been supported by numerous sponsors that allow us to produce West Orange’s largest community event every year. Unfortunately, due to the ongoing Covid-19 situation, we have decided to postpone the March 2021 St. Patrick’s Day Parade. Since this pandemic started, the Committee — in conjunction with other Irish Organizations such as the Friendly Sons of Shillelagh, the Ancient Order of Hibernians, and the Women of Irish Heritage — has organized mask distributions, food drives, and, most recently, a winter coat drive that resulted in us donating 230 coats to the Holy Trinity Church in West Orange.

This year the Parade Committee will be donating ALL profits of our T-Shirt Fundraising Campaign this year to OUR LADY OF THE VALLEY SOUP KITCHEN. The “Valley” Church is one of four churches in our yearly rotation that Mass is held on the morning of the Parade. The Valley Soup Kitchen is a truly deserving organization that provides so much to those in need. In addition to the monies raised, the Parade Committee will match up to $500 in donations. Please consider purchasing a T-shirt and help the Parade Give Back.

So remember to Stay Safe. Stay Strong. STAY IRISH.
