MIC has made a change in my life, and that is why I believe in MIC. They gave us food, shirts and other things and that is why I will never forget them. I feel so happy and proud of them for giving us things that we want. I am saying thank you for everything that you have done for us.
Who is Patchy? In short, Patchy IS “Mighty In Character.” Neither proud nor ashamed, he is a little boy, blessed beyond his wildest dreams, who chooses always to view his cup as half full instead of half empty.
He loves to share his positive outlook on life, as well as his many life lessons with others. In doing so, he hopes to become more enlightened. He hopes that by shining some light on life’s toughest issues and sprinkling those lessons with just a dash of humor, he can encourage others always to see even the negatives in life as opportunities to unearth the positives as well––and to live every single day Mighty In Character!
