You Can Do It Put Your FLING Into It! Only 7 days away!


The Campus Activities Board at Monroe Community College faces the battle against kidney disease head on with this year’s community outreach project!

MCC FACES A CAUSE is a community outreach project that is sponsored by The Campus Activities Board.  Together, we as a campus community, will draw our own self portraits that will be used to form one BIG MOSAIC.  Up close you see thousands of faces; from a distance you see the MCC TRIBUNE!  Matted Prints will be made available for sale as a fundraiser to battle Kidney Disease and help one of MCC's own families!

Kathy Navarro, Monroe Community College student extraordinaire, is giving life to her nephew by donating one of her kidneys. Kathy’s sister, Diane Dawson, who works at Monroe Community College in the Instructional Technologies Department, has a preteen son, David, who has dealt with kidney disease all of his life. With the support of his family, friends, and medical care, he has been able to be active in sports and dreams of being a professional athlete. Kathy is donating one of her kidneys to help David live his dreams, and she has to take off 6-8 weeks from work to give this incredible gift.

Stop by the MCC FACES A CAUSE booth at SPRING FLING to create your face! Students, faculty, staff, alumni, friends, and families are invited to create their faces.  No special artistic skills are required.  Everyone is welcome.  Draw alone or as a group.  It's simple and easy to do.  Encourage others to draw too.  It doesn't matter how well you draw, participation is everything!

All of the proceeds will be donated to support Kathy and David…to help cover the co-payments, medical costs, and services for the family during their recovery.  Please take the time to draw a Self Portrait at SPRING FLING.

The Faces of Monroe Community College Tribune Mosaics will be available for purchase (for $25.00) in September! \
