Thank you to those of you who were able to join us at the MSC Helps Luncheon and to those of you who gave gifts in support of the event. Every year, we are amazed and inspired by your support, and this year was no different!

We are proud to share that we raised a record-breaking $131,049 to provide help, hope, and change for our community through the MSC Helps Luncheon. Thank you for making this possible! If you haven’t donated yet, it’s not too late!

We were inspired by Doug Baldwin and honored to present Bob Wroblewski with the Help, Hope, Change award!

We also thank Bryan for sharing his personal story of receiving help through MSC’s education and employment programs, helping to get him back on his feet and on the path to following his dreams.
