About Us

Our chapter was founded over 30 years ago by a small group of women dedicated to serving children in need.  Today we have grown our volunteer membership to 200 and we continue to strive to meet the ever growing needs of our community.  What makes us unique--we have no paid staff, we are all volunteers serving under resourced children. Our Vision is to serve impoverished children, or those with special needs in Northern Michigan.

Our Mission is to serve the needs of infants and children in Northern Michigan, without prejudice, through the personal service of its membership, in the love and spirit of the Christ Child. Our ecumenical chapter membership is made up of compassionate and actively engaged volunteers assisting children requiring clothing, food, education support, as well as those families needing short-term financial aid for their child.  Funding for our mission is derived from grants, our annual summer fundraiser and generous donors.
