Vision
“It all begins with an idea. One day we thought - what if we take all this hard work and give it back to our communities directly? We loved our experiences and the people we met along the way but were so excited to make it local and fulfilling!”
Mission
“Our Flock aims to give back to the community through creating fun events, fundraising, and community service. We have lived, laughed, and loved PINK - and now we want to gather up all our resources to help our fellow community members during one of the most challenging life-changing times of their life.”
