BUTTE, Mont. – Governor Greg Gianforte today kicked off his second annual 12 Days of Giving at Butte Rescue Mission, serving lunch to Montanans struggling with food insecurity.

“Giving back and serving our neighbors is part of who we are as Montanans, and in that spirit, I’m excited to bring back our 12 Days of Giving this year,” Governor Gianforte said. “Over 12 days, we’ll highlight a dozen charities serving our fellow Montanans, and Butte Rescue Mission is the perfect place to kick things off.”
