I could not have done it without your well organized event, or the support of my family, also known as "Team Bekah♥︎”. Thanks again!” —Bekah S. #runglasscity

This is Mike. He is one of the adults with autism who has found his purpose at Bittersweet Farms. Bittersweet was founded in 1983 as the first farmstead-based program for adults with autism in the United States. Because of the support of the running community through MHGCM, each day Bittersweet is able to provide Mike and so many others with meaningful, paid employment and a place to call “home.” We are so grateful for your support! @bittersweet_83 @mercy_health #runglasscity
