Today, on Veterans Day, we pause to honor the brave men and women who have served our country — and to support those who continue to serve through their families.

Dave and Jennifer Harris and all of us at MCF Advisors were proud to present a $22,000 donation to our friends at the Lexington Fisher House. This incredible organization provides a comforting home away from home for military and veteran families while their loved ones receive medical care.

We’re deeply grateful for our veterans, their families, and the sacrifices they make every day. Supporting the Fisher House’s mission is one small way we can give back to those who’ve given us so much. ❤️💙
