We know everyone has heard of the disastrous fires in Southern California. We do have chapters near those areas.

We have been in contact with all the chapters there and none of their members lost their homes or had damages from the fires. We were very lucky!

If one of your members has a devastating financial emergency that was not caused by their actions, remember the Mother-To-Mother Fund may be able to help. The M2M Fund is our charity for assisting members who suffer from devastating financial emergencies or natural disasters.

All M2M Grant requests go through the Mother-To-Mother Fund Committee for approval. To submit a request for assistance, first look at the M2M Fund Fact Sheet posted on our website (under Resources / Fact Sheets).

If you feel a request for one of your members qualifies, then contact your MOMS Club Conference Coordinator to help you with the application process. All chapter requests for assistance are vetted by the chapter first – you know your members best. Usually, unemployment, bankruptcies and business problems do not qualify for a grant. The M2M Fund Fact Sheet has a list of situations that have qualified in the past.

Remember, the M2M Fund can only help if the donations are already in the Fund when an emergency arises. If you want to do your part to make sure there is help available when it is needed, please donate to the Mother-To-Mother Fund. That is the quickest, easiest and most secure way to ensure that MOMS Club members-in-need get the help they need most.

You can donate via the momsclub.org website. Go to the “Support MOMS Club” menu “M2M Fund Donation” and scroll down to “Donate Now.”
