Wainwright MFRC

Military Family Appreciation Week

To show appreciation for the contributions military families make to this community, we welcome area businesses to join us in our efforts during MFAW.

We also encourage local businesses to take this opportunity to recognize and acknowledge, in some manner, their employees who are members of military families. Let us know if you choose to do so and we would also be happy to mention this in our PR efforts.

We are really looking forward to this weeklong event, and hope we can count on your support!

to learn more about how your business can participate in this year’ MFAW, please contact Lauren Sweet-Lawrence, MFRC Community Development Coordinator as soon as possible to indicate your intent.
