Help Us Bring Back the Columbus Day Parade in Springfield!

After decades of silence, the Columbus Day Parade is returning to Main Street, Springfield on Sunday, October 12th at 2 PM! This historic event celebrates our Italian American heritage, honors Christopher Columbus, and recognizes our local heroes — police, firefighters, veterans, EMTs, and everyday community champions.

But we can’t do it alone. Hosting a parade of this size comes with many expenses — permits, bands, floats, security, and more. We are asking our friends, families, and neighbors to join us in making history. Every donation, no matter the size, helps us keep this tradition alive for future generations.

Please consider donating today to support the Sons & Daughters of Italy and help us bring pride, joy, and unity to Springfield’s South End once again.

❤️ Thank you for your generosity and support — together we can make this parade unforgettable!
