SUPPORTING OUR COMMUNITY IN NEED
Just a quick shout out to the MVFC community. I’m extremely proud that we were able to raise $2,000 for GenWest through our Mother’s Day raffle last week to help them continue to support victims and survivors of family violence.

I’m also super proud of raising over $5,600 (out of $74,000 total so far) for Camp Quality as part of the Conquer Cancer Australia event - the highest for any team in the event!
