MSL GIVES BACK
On behalf of our Associates and their territory, MSL Associates, Inc. will donate $200.00 to the charity of our associate's choice each month.
This month Vic Garbonkus of Illinois would like to support the Lithuanian Scouts Association, Inc. Vic is currently involved with the Lithuanian Sea Scouts Association teaching the younger generation the skills of seamanship and sailing on Lake Michigan. Vic and the crew are responsible for the upkeep and maintenance of a 26' 1965 'Pearson Commanders' sea scout sailboat named Baltic. Vic donates time and money to its upkeep and restoration. The youth are eager to participate and that is very rewarding to Vic.
Thank you, Vic, for your service to your community! |

Special Announcement
We celebrate Laura Raigoza's 10 year anniversary!
10 years ago I interviewed Laura at an Applebee's over a lunch that the company could not afford. I remember telling Laura that we had only been in business six months. At that time she left a management position at a well established company to join our team.
So here we are, 10 years later, supporting 20+ families and growing in large part due to Laura Raigoza. We celebrate her intellect, commitment, ability to multi task and work ethic.
So I hope all of you will join me in congratulating Laura on her 10th Anniversary at MSL Associates, Inc. We look forward to the next 10.
