Community comes together to raise money for scholars

The Medical Lake Dollars for Scholars (MLDFS) held their annual “Spring Thing” fundraiser, March 22, to raise money for their scholarship fund. The theme for this year’s event was “Puttin’ On The Ritz.”

According to MLDFS treasurer Steven Meltzer, this year’s fundraiser is different from the previous ones in that the foundation raised money with only ticket sales and raffle drawings.

Since its inception in 2001, MLDFS has awarded $413,000 to Medical Lake High School students and currently has over raised over $90,000 for the Cardinal Star Permanent Endowment Fund.
