MFHQ MEMO | From Chambana<\/del> Mendota with Love<\/strong><\/p>\n

Friends! We at the mobile MFHQ<\/strong> wish everyone the best in bringing on 2019 with a sense of love and purpose. In our minds, there is no better way to reestablish our footing in what we do and where we do it for the New Year than to put our next issue of C-U Confidential<\/span><\/strong> digest in your<\/em> hands. Do you agree? Would you pick it up at beloved venues and merchants near you if it appeared on their shelves for the tenth time? We continue to ask for your collective help in affording its print cost since our advertising base has dried up. Please follow this link to our GoFundMe<\/strong> drive and contribute if you see it fit.<\/a><\/span> With a week and a day left to our self-imposed deadline of next Sunday, December 30<\/strong>, we are half the way to our goal. Any support would certainly make our holidays a little bit brighter and give us needed motivation. Thank you for the continued interest in all things Confidential and peace to everyone!<\/p>\n
