The origins of the feast:
The Saint Rocco Fraternal Society of Malden was founded in 1929 by a group of Italian-Catholic Immigrants to become a beneficiary society for those local people inflicted with the flu. That year the society started its annual Feast of St. Rocco which became a three-day event to raise money to provide death benefits to those members families who lost their loved ones during the year. The tradition continues today and is comprised of men and women dedicated to the work of St Rocco, patron of illness. The funds are used to offer financial and moral support to those who struggle to address the educational, housing and nutritional needs of daily life and are often over-looked by society.
