“I don’t know where we’d be without MCUM and I don’t want to find out”. These words from a MCUM client speak to a fine line that many of our neighbors walk every day. 

MCUM has played a critical role in our community’s social service network, leading efforts to alleviate the symptoms of poverty as well as empower people to tackle the causes. We need your help to continue our mission of creating lasting solutions to economic, educational, and social injustice in our community through quality programs, collaboration, and innovation.

From March-April, we're hosting a community-wide challenge against poverty. This year our goal is to raise $40,000 to support our programs and 1,000 pounds of non-perishable items to restock our food pantry and cleaning and hygiene closet. 

Are you interested in helping us meet our goals? Contact Madison about setting up a food drive!

Walk or Run, but don't wait to sign-up for the Miles for MCUM Walk/Run-a-Thon! 

Participants can make their own route or join us at MCUM (or both) on May 21st from 12 PM-4 PM for a group event. Join staff afterward for refreshments and a tour.

If you get 5 or more of your friends, family, and/or coworkers together, you will receive a team discount! All proceeds go towards MCUM's programs, so what could be better than maximizing your impact by collecting pledges. The team and individual with the most (#) pledges* collected will win MCUM zip-up fleeces.

Register for the event at mcum.org/events. Please register by May 14th, 2022.
