The Myakka City Foundation |
Our very first 5k run was held in the Myakka State Park this past weekend.
Everyone had a wonderful time, enjoyed a beautiful day, and said
they can't wait until next year when we do it again! We had over
100 participants!
Thank you to the volunteers that showed up to help with everything, we
couldn't do it without you!
Thank you to the community for your
support, you make it possible for the Foundation to help those in need!
Please see the link below for pictures of the event. We
would like to thank Tom Conner for taking pictures, sharing them
with us and for allowing us to share them with you. Please click

We are neighbors helping neighbors! This is a time
honored tradition of Myakka City residents- We are there when others
are in need. Please make this the month that you will become a
member. Remember this will help us when we are applying for
grants. They will want to see that our own community also
supports us, and the way this is done is through our membership numbers!
To
those that are in need of our help, OUR
APPLICATION FOR ASSISTANCE link
is the second one down at the top left. Once you are on that
page, just click the "Application for Assistance" button.
Please print these pages, fill them out completely and mail them to the
PO Box above. Our Board will then review them, and then contact
you.
Please
join us at our meetings! Everyone is welcome! 6:00 pm at
Myakka Fire Station 2 on SR 70. Come see good things happening in our
community. Times are
hard and there are those in genuine need of help. We can make a
difference, we are "Neighbors helping Neighbors!"
Our next meeting is May 20th, 2013!
