MAC Gives Back Part of our new MAC Gives Back campaign, MAC TV would like to get involved in volunteer opportunities in Clare, Gratiot or Isabella counties. With busy lives, it can be hard to find time to volunteer. However, the benefits of volunteering are enormous to you, your family and your community. Volunteers are often the glue that holds a community together. Even helping out with the smallest tasks can make a real difference to the lives of people, animals, and organizations in need. In this episode of MAC Gives Back we got to talk to two of the organizers of the 100 Women Who Care chapter in Gratiot County. The women involved in this charity group vote on local charities to donate to together. https://vimeo.com/259402503

If you have any events or ideas of ways we can help get involved in our community please let us know!
