“Micshel joined our team at EPU Children’s Center just six weeks prior to our annual signature fundraising event, and we quickly realized she was ALL IN! When the outdoor event was facing a rain cancellation just two days prior to the date, Micshel quickly pivoted and found an amazing venue and all of the related pieces were gathered and put in place. It was an amazing evening, and despite the rain, everyone who attended indicated it was one of our best in its 29-year history! Thanks Micshel for stepping in and ensuring that our historic event was successful and helped further our mission at EPU!”
