Events

MCRC’s Empowerment Programs rely heavily on fundraising events to ensure all citizens have fair and equitable access to services and supports that will level the playing field and boost their trajectory of success.

  • The Infant Food Bank helps local families in need by providing a monthly supply of diapers, formula, baby food and cereal.
  • She Can! programs are free and designed to empower and uplift girls and gender diverse youth in our community.
  • The Period Power Initiative provides a range of period products, including panty-liners, tampons, pads, and menstrual cups, through our Infant Food Bank

MCRC events also help to raise awareness of these vital programs and the impact we are making in the community for families and children.

Each year, MCRC hosts a variety of signature events:

ECO-CHIC: THE FUTURE OF FASHION

Saturday, November 8, 2025

The evening was bursting with energy, style, and creativity!

Our incredible designers, consignment shops, and models proved that fashion can be beautiful, sustainable, and innovative—showing that style doesn’t have to be new to be inspiring.

Thanks to your amazing support at MCRC’s Eco-Chic Fashion Show, we raised $6,000 for the Infant Food Bank, enabling us to purchase 4,650 pouches of baby food and nourish 232 babies in our community.

It was a joy to celebrate creativity, sustainability, and community while spotlighting the vital work of the Infant Food Bank, which supports over 200 babies each month with essential food and supplies.

Thank you for making the night unforgettable. Your presence made a real difference.
