Smith and Johnson couldn’t be more proud to be associated with the Father Fred Foundation and the companies here in TC that support the foundation. Listen, Care, Share - it’s what we all do.

A huge thank you to the following companies for sponsoring our new truck!

Fox Grand Traverse Ford
Hallmark Construction
Northwestern Mutual Wealth Management – Clark Gingras, CFP
Old Mission Associates Landscape
Prout Financial Design
Smith & Johnson, Attorneys

To keep up with the demand for our services—and because our current truck was aging—we were very much in need of a new truck. We had been saving and planning for a new truck for quite some time, and with the help of these six very special sponsors, we were able to make it happen.

Thank you also to Nolan's To***co and Cigar Bar and the Traverse City AOH for making it part of the Cigar Dinner, and to Nuart for agreeing to do the graphics at a very affordable price.

Keep an eye out for it on the road as it picks up food and other supplies to help our neighbors in need!

Thank you to our sponsors and to all our donors for your support. Together, we are making a difference in our community. 💙
