MIFA Campaign Launched

MIFA recently unveiled its new public awareness campaign Something Good in Memphis!

The campaign is designed to celebrate individuals who have a positive impact in our community but whose achievements and selfless acts often go unnoticed.

You can help them launch this exciting campaign in two fun, easy ways!

NOMINATE FRIENDS, NEIGHBORS, COLLEAGUES

This interactive campaign relies on nominations. We invite you to nominate those you know whose daily efforts or remarkable deeds embody the spirit of positive action in this community. Submit your nominations via a simple form on the campaign’s website, www.SomethingGoodinMemphis.org.

SPREAD THE WORD!

Invite everyone you know to participate! Send this link www.SomethingGoodinMemphis.org to as many people as possible along with a personal note encouraging them to get involved.

They need your nominations today to kick off the campaign! Your participation is important to them -- and it will only take a few minutes of your time.

Many thanks for helping MIFA continue to be an alliance of good in our community.
