THANK YOU from the Miami East Education Foundation Board Members . .

To Todd and Krystal Smith (Eloquence Catering) for generously declaring their Wednesday, October 20, 2021 community dinner a “Spirit Dinner” to benefit the Foundation.

And to the 390 spirited Miami East supporters who purchased Todd and Krystal’s tasty meals!

The winners of this fantastic outpouring of support? Miami East students! Because each meal purchased contributes to a scholarship for a MEHS graduate or to a learning-enhancement project or equipment for a ME K-12 class.
