About Us
MCFAN The Mission of Medina County Friends And Neighbors (MCFAN) is to build the conservative grassroots in Medina County in order to preserve and promote the constitutional republic, the free enterprise economy and our traditional American values.
The Approach MCFAN uses to fulfill its mission is to identify, interest, inform, involve, energize and empower people to become highly effective, active citizens.
The scope of MCFAN includes national, state, county and local levels of government.
Our specialty breakfast on the 2nd and 4th Saturday of each month provides a casual public forum that provides entertainment and socialization for those who have never been involved in politics before as well as those who have; they are entertaining, informative, and energizing. For those who want to become involved and effective in shaping the future of America, this is the welcome center.
Our website at www.mcfan.org was developed to be not only an interesting, informative and entertaining website for the frequent visitor, but also a valuable resource center for those who want to learn more about the political process and develop their own skills as an advocate. All content is provided free of copyright so that it can be copied, downloaded and used at will.
Our growth in the first six months was nothing short of spectacular. We take particular pride in helping to support the startup of three other conservative groups within Medina County. Each and every one of them participated as one team in organizing and running the Medina County Tea Party. We have expanded our role to supporting the formation and growth of conservative organizations and alliances throughout Ohio under the name OhioFAN.
OhioFAN
The Mission of OhioFAN is to build the conservative grassroots coalition throughout Ohio to preserve and promote the constitutional republic, free enterprise economy and traditional American values.
The Approach OhioFAN uses to fulfill its mission is to identify grassroots conservatives and conservative organizations throughout Ohio, help them to get connected to each other, and promote allied efforts through communication and coordination. We maintain a list of links to all conservative organizations that we know about throughout the state, try to post all of their events and announcements on our own Announcements page (providing a single source for all events statewide) and have developed a statewide organizational leaders' distribution list. By connecting 10 groups of 10 individuals, we can mobilize the combined effort of 100. By making the best use of the specific strengths of each of those individuals, we can have the combined impact of 150 or more.
The scope of OhioFAN includes national and state levels of government.
OhioFAN has participated in two Cleveland Tea Parties, attended the first Cincinnati Tea Party meeting up with our conservative contacts at that end of the state, supported all 28 Tea Parties on April 15, participated in three of them and helped organize two (Cleveland and Medina). We have helped several other conservative organizations start up and have provided grassroots volunteer training (grassroots organizing, precinct canvassing) throughout the state - and continue to do so.
AmericanFAN
