An all-volunteer group helping homeless and poverty level children in our community.

Who We Are

The Macomb Charitable Foundation is a group of volunteers who seek out and assist homeless and poverty-stricken children in our community. We are all volunteers, no one gets paid. This means that 100% of the profit realized from any fundraising event will be used to make a difference in the life of a child.

What We Do

What We Do

We assist with things that other agencies cannot. We pay for tutoring, after-school activities, band instruments, field trips, athletic fees and more. We believe that keeping a child active and involved in their school means less time they will be spending on the street.

We are contacted by social service agencies, teachers, principals and churches to assist children in need. We put in countless hours raising money, making home visits, mentoring, advising and returning calls.

Homeless children in Macomb County? You bet. Lots of them. We believe that what we do makes a difference. With your prayers and financial support, we remind these children that they have not been forgotten.

“Investing in the well-being of homeless children in our community creates a brighter future for all of our children.  I consider it a privilege to help the most vulnerable families in our neighborhoods.    It is a bonus to be surrounded and supported by friends and loved ones.

“For me, the secret of MCF, is not the things we do just at Christmas time, but the Christmas things you do all year through”.

“I am honored to be part of a charity that allows me to give back to the children in our community. Being surrounded by a group of individuals who share the same values makes it possible to truly make a difference. Together, we work to improve the lives of vulnerable children by providing them with safety, support, and hope for a brighter future. There is nothing more rewarding than seeing the smile on a child’s face when they realize that someone genuinely cares.”
