PHILANTHROPY

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.

The charity we are supporting this year is the Bessie Mathew Foundation, an organization that supports women and their families in their cancer journey

To learn more about the Bessie Mathew Foundation, please visit their website at https://www.bessiemathewfoundation.org

To donate to this charity, Venmo @themfl or Zelle themfl@gmail.com with the memo “Bessie Mathew Foundation”. We’ll issue a single check to the charity for the total amount raised.
