Grief is heavy enough. Financial panic should not weigh it down.

The Ripple Effect

A grant does more than pay a bill. It stabilizes a home.

We estimate every grant impacts 50 lives. The family. The neighbors. The classmates. The teammates. When we help one, we stabilize the community.

• The Child: Honored with dignity.

• The Home: Parents and siblings saved from financial crisis.

• The Family: Grandparents and extended relatives focus on grief, not logistics.

• The Community: Teammates, classmates, and neighbors have a place to say goodbye.

Stories of Strength

We respect the privacy of the families we serve. These are glimpses into the lives honored by the MCM Fund recently.

The Joyful Spirit

A 10-year-old boy died at home after a long battle with cancer. He loved Mickey Mouse. He spent his final days surrounded by love. His grant eased funeral costs for his parents and sister.

The Scholar

A teenage girl relapsed while preparing for college. She was known for her humor and fierce personality. Her family faced sudden end-of-life costs after her passing in the ICU. The MCM Fund stepped in to assist.
