TOGETHER, WE CAN MAKE DREAMS POSSIBLE

This event is not just a fundraising effort; it’s a celebration of hope and the power of dreams. We welcome the opportunity to come together in celebration of our shared values as a caring and strong island community.
Martha’s Vineyard Community Services (MVCS) plays a vital role in our community, providing essential resources and support to those in need. This year’s Possible Dreams auction aims to raise funds that will directly benefit local families, ensuring they have access to vital services like education, counseling, and a host of other essential supports.
I encourage each of you to get involved in this annual event. Whether it’s attending the event (in-person or via live-stream), spreading the word, donating auction items or contributing in any way you can, your participation will make a difference. Our collective efforts can help transform lives and empower our community to thrive.
As we prepare for this event, let’s remember the importance of our unity and the impact we can have when we come together for a common goal. Your passion and dedication are what make our island strong, and I am proud to stand alongside you in supporting these vital services that support our island community.
Thank you for your continued commitment to making a positive impact. Let’s make the 47th annual Possible Dreams fundraiser a resounding success!
