The Mt. Pleasant Area Community Foundation (MPACF) welcomes Elizabeth “Liz” (Whittemore) Fredendall to the newly-created role of Communications Associate. Fredendall joined the staff in March and is responsible for the communications, marketing, and public relations functions of the Community Foundation.

Fredendall studied at St. Clair County Community College before transferring to Central Michigan University (CMU) in 2014. After receiving her Bachelor of Science in Photojournalism from CMU, Fredendall worked as a freelance photojournalist for publications such as Epicenter Mt. Pleasant and Catalyst Midland.
