Anyone can participate and multiple nominations are welcome (and encouraged!). The nominations process is quick! The Annual Theme is based on one of MFC’s Values.

The aim of this effort is to mobilize our community to raise funds to provide an appreciation lunch for our local heroes at the Howard County General Hospital.
