Good Friend, here's this month's issue of Mission Matters

June 2024

Summer's here, everyone — welcome to the latest edition of our monthly newsletter, Mission Matters!

Well, it's official: Our big annual fundraiser—Art for the Children—is in the books, and WOW! What a success!

We had an absolutely amazing night and raised over $100,000 for Medical Missions!

I'd like to thank…

Armacost Car Museum, Nigro Brothers Auctioneers, Kansas City Chiefs Red Coaters, Studio Dan Meiners, Scrape the Plate Catering, Mikey Needleman, Fast Signs, J & J Printing, David Uhlig and all the artists and businesses that donated auction items.

But most of all, I'd like to thank YOU—our supporters. Because without your generous and unwavering support over the years, our mission of providing surgical and medical care to underserved communities throughout the world wouldn't happen.

THANK YOU!
