“The Friends of St. Patrick” was founded in 1987 in Walpole, Mass, by John D. Murphy and a small band of local citizens who realized the value of capturing the spirit of good will and good cheer that abounds each year on the feast of Ireland’s most famous saint. 

It was agreed that the most appropriate manner of celebrating this event would be an annual luncheon in mid March at which time all people who shared that spirit would be welcome to join together in food, drink, laughter and song. In the spirit of its patron, each year the organization acknowledges the outstanding contributions of individuals and has donated over $480,000 to charities, including Longview Farm, Walpole Lion's Club, Walpole Food Pantry, Walpole Lion’s Club, Gift for Kids, Walpole Public Library, Pan Mass Challenge, Friends of St. Nick, Friends of Council Aging, Walpole Charity Golf Fund, Medical Missions, Rodman Ride for Kids, Blessed Sacrament School, Dana Farber Cancer, Walpole Ponds-The Lodge, Smiling Eyes, St. Vincent DePaul, and Joe Andruzzi Foundation.

Join us on March 15, 2024!
