One of MAPA's key missions is to support local organizations and projects which seek to improve the quality of life in our town. Organizations which have received funding support in the past are involved in a wide variety of programs; these organizations include Moon Lake Community Library, North Lookout Mountain Fire Protection District, Boy Scout Troop 106, Mentone Educational Resources Foundation (MERF), the former Moon Lake School, and DeSoto Rescue Squad, to name just a few.
