BMCF Giving
Disbursements
Every member of the Batavia Mothers' Club works together to raise
funds for local charities. In the spring, we disburse these funds
entirely to local organizations. Last year we disbursed over $33,000.
Many charities who pursue improvements in education, literacy, life
for children and other important projects have benefitted from our
community's continuous support. Thank you on behalf of all these
organizations.
Deadline for philanthropic applications is March 1st of the current year.
Charities: Please download our Philanthropic
Application in either PDF
or Microsoft
Word versions.
Share and Care
Making personal donations of goods at our meetings is a part of
BMCF tradition. Groups of items include nonperishable food, personal
care items, children's clothing and cleaning supplies.
Cold Weather and Holiday Support
BMCF members pay special attention to those in need during the cold
winter months and the holiday season. We operate drives for winter
coats, thanksgiving turkeys, and holiday gift sponsorship for families.
These efforts are often in cooperation with local charities such
as the Batavia Clothes Closet and the Interfaith Food Pantry. Donations
of our time are also provided every year to keep successful programs
going such as the Access Toy Drive.
Focus on Education
A percentage of our disbursement is traditionally given to Batavia
Public Schools. We publish a detailed preschool guide to preschools
in the Fox Valley. Our members also volunteer to help Batavia's
Family Literacy Project and we sponsor Batavia's Parents' Academy
Seminar Series
