Farewell Lindsay Hefferan

FMRs Volunteer and Event Registrar Lindsay Hefferan is moving on to take a position with Studio MPLS, a branding and design firm in the Longfellow neighborhood. A familiar voice and name to many of our volunteers and program participants, Lindsay worked behind the scenes to register and assist hundreds of individuals and groups, making sure FMR volunteers had all the details they needed for a successful experience. She also organized FMRs extensive online collection of event photos so they could be shared with volunteers in a thank-you email. Please join us in wishing Lindsay the best of luck in her new job!
