Offering for March 25, 2023
Michigan Advance Partners
I was appointed to the Conference Lay Advisory Committee as Vice Chair of Area D and last year moved to Chair of Area D. Back when the MAP concept was presented by Jerry Snowden at Cedar Lake, I was there. It seemed like a genius idea, and I have supported MAP with my 1% offering ever since.
