NOTE: CMG is an all-volunteer registered 501c3 non-profit organization. Every dollar we bring in goes back into creating community at a time when we need it most. It’s something beyond the bars, the apps, and the pasted-on smile events; CMG is simply a place for real people to meet real nice people, grow as individuals, and build community across our great state.
