How We Work
We pay no rent or salaries.
We are all-volunteer non-profit
organization. We operate from our
kitchen tables and office desks.
Board
members and volunteers do not
receive compensation of any kind. We
respond 365 days a year to unique
and universal needs.
One hundred percent (100%)
of the money raised goes to the kids and we
are 100% volunteers. We serve youth from
Rockport to Gualala and inland to Comptche. We
are the safety net for our coastal infants and
children who need a helping hand. We provide
needed resources to benefit Mendocino Coast
low-income newborns and children up to eighteen
years of age.
The Fund focuses on providing children with
basic needs and enrichment, realizing that
children need both to thrive and grow.
We support our local economy by
purchasing through our local
business community partners and
careful stewardship of resources. We
do not give cash to children or
their families. We use our hearts
but we use our heads first so that
we can have the most beneficial
impact.
MCCF’s
necessary operating expenses are
paid out of a loving endowment from
late community member, Norman de Groot.
Our community’s teachers, social
workers, coaches, health
professionals and recreation staff
make requests to the MCCF on behalf
of infants and children in need.
The Board reviews all requests. We
protect the identity of the children
served and of our donors as
well. Confidentiality is at the core
of everything we do.
