On behalf of all of us at Mount Desert Island Hospital, I would like to extend our sincere thanks for your generous and ongoing support through the annual Miniature Golf Tournament, held on May 18th. We are truly grateful for the incredible $5,000 raised this year in support of our food security programs—a strategic focus for our organization and a growing need in our community. Your partnership directly supports our mission to foster the health and vibrancy of the MDI community. The impact of your efforts reaches far beyond the day of the event—your commitment helps ensure that future generations are nourished, supported, and cared for. This is a profound gift, and we are honored to have the MDI Rotary Club as a steadfast ally in this vital work. Thank you for all you do to uplift and strengthen our island community. We are excited to continue this meaningful collaboration.
With gratitude,
Christina J. Maguire, President and Chief Executive Officer
