Every year, the MFL supports a charitable organization by sharing their mission with MFL participants and by donating a portion of the proceeds from MFL events to the organization’s cause.
In memory of Josh Mathai, the charity we are supporting this year is Willow House, an organization that brings hope and healing to youth and families who are grieving the death of a parent, sibling or child
To learn more about Willow Hill, please visit their website at https://www.willowhouse.org
To donate to this charity, Venmo @themfl or Zelle themfl@gmail.com with the memo “Willow House”. We’ll issue a single check to the charity for the total amount raised.
