MFS Alumni Featured in Girls Life Magazine

An article by MFS alumnus Katherine Sowa Hammer ’12 titled “The 2020 election is the most important one of our lives” appears in the October/November issue of Girls Life magazine. The article featured fellow alumnus Shelby Deibler ‘20 who spoke on the importance of voting and about her excitement going into this election as a first-time voter. 

The article quoted Shelby saying, “To be part of the 2020 election as a first-time voter fills me with a sense of pride. I feel like I’m going to be making a significant contribution to our American story… When you vote for someone, you are giving that person the power to make decisions on your behalf. You’re deciding who has the authority to make laws, sign orders, and help write the story of your future… No matter the outcome, the 2020 election will be a defining moment in American history. From the primaries to the pandemic, this year has brought unending chaos and uncertainty, but voting is a constant – the most direct way to create change.”
