No contribution is too big or too small to make a local impact on those in need.

MOM's Outreach touches every corner of our community. Those favorably impacted by MOM include:

• Over a thousand local families through our Food Pantry and Clothing Closet
• 200 seniors through our Project for Older People and utility assistance program
•  500 young families in need of utility, housing and other cash assistance 
• Over 400 families through our seasonal support programs (School  Backpack, Thanksgiving Baskets and Sharing Christmas)
• Hundreds of volunteers dedicating over 15,000 hours annually

Our strong volunteer support allows a significant portion of our $1.2 million cash and in-kind budget to be dedicated directly to program support and execution.

NOW, More Than Ever, residents of the Middleton-Cross Plains School District and West Madison are seeking MOM's Outreach.  In turn, MOM is appealing to concerned citizens and organizations to help us meet the current year 25 percent demand increase. We are 100 percent dependent on the generosity of community members and organizations. Generous year-end contributions of over $350,000 will be required for MOM to continue to meet the community needs.

Our goodwill Ministry is comprised of many local businesses and business owners, over 1,400 individual donors, hundreds of hard working volunteers, broad based church support and numerous public and other service organizations.  MOM collaborates and works closely with outstanding organizations such as United Way, Salvation Army, Second Harvest, Community Action Coalition and many others.

We recognize the current year economic challenges faced by many of our supporters. Despite (or because of) these challenges, we urge you to consider maintaining, or increasing, your charitable giving to those causes you consider special. Now, More Than Ever, it is important for those that have the ability to provide for others to take a leadership role in their giving. Be part of this generous community organization committed to making a difference.

In 2009 , the Middleton High School senior class dedicated its $11,000 class fund to MOM as part of its "Change the World Challenge."  The senior class goal was to improve the world,  beginning in their own back yard. We hope you share this same visionary spirit as you consider making MOM a beneficiary of your charitable spirit.  Now, More Than Ever, your contribution is needed to make a difference right here in our own back yard.

Sincerely,

MOM Board of Directors:  Tim Carey, Ruth Dumesic (Secretary), Eric Fritz, Mike Gasser (Treasurer), Gene Gray, Jim Hartlieb (Vice President), Don Johnson, Pauline Kussart, Mike Kutchin (President), Bernie Lange, Steve O’Brien, Julie Redders, and Claire Shaffer
