Megan Mitchell
Owner
Megan Mitchell and her team at Cactus Jack's went above and beyond to make our fundraiser a success. Two months prior to the event, Megan dedicated her time by meeting with Peyton Thomas and Penny Randell to offer advice and guidance. She was always available for questions. She is wise and giving. I hope to take her to Uganda with us soon!
