We consider ourselves fortunate to be members of the diverse and vibrant Mitchell County community. We are honored to be able to help when our friends and neighbors need a hand. We know that continued financial support is critical to our nonprofits. The Fund for Mitchell County provides us with a wonderful opportunity to provide assistance now and in the future.
