At MCUM, we make sure people do not have to choose between their basic needs.

Food Baskets

During the holiday season, families experience more visitors, parties, and, in general, more mouths to feed. Help a family celebrate by preparing a themed food basket using this special list.

Too busy to make a basket?

You can donate money instead!

Food baskets are $55 each or $75 with the addition of a ham or turkey.

Art at Compass

This year, we have moved to an Amazon Gift Registry for our Arts & Crafts budget. If you would like to provide capacity for enriching art activities at Compass Early Learning Center, you can check out our registry, pick out a much-needed item, and have it sent directly to MCUM for use in our classrooms.
