In 2023, Fundraising Surpassed $225,000!
Bello Machre’s biggest fundraising event, Every Step Counts, was held in two locations again this year: at Manchester Valley High School in Manchester, MD, and in front of the new Health & Life Sciences Building at Anne Arundel Community College in Arnold, MD, on June 10, 2023. It was a picture-perfect day full of smiles, positive energy, and good vibes. An estimated 300 people came out to walk and celebrate and donate to the cause. There was no shortage of generosity, as giving surpassed $225,000, making ESC 2023 one for the record books!
