Give to the Max day is Tomorrow 11/19/2020!!!
The pandemic has put a strain on so many fundraising events at MNCS.
With the depleting revenue that we usually generate from those fundraisers, we were thinking "Give to the Max Day" is a perfect social distancing fundraiser. Giving digitally, and not having to be in person is a perfect option during these unprecedented times. See our link below to donate:
