Last Week:
We had an intriguing visit to One Mission in Mt. Vernon. Co-Owner John Rhomberg gave us a comprehensive tour of their operations and told us about the vision he and his wife Amanda are pursuing with their company to better the world by supporting the mission of organizations through their fundraising platform. They sell many fine products and additionally offer a crowd funding options that does not take any administrative fees. Thank you to John for showing us his passion and business! 40% of all items purchased go back to the cause, please take a look at our local club page at One Mission at https://onemissionfundraising.com/fundraisers/mvl-rotary/?shopfor=35776#tab_fundraiser_support.
