A Day Of Giving
The MOD Movement participates in an annual day of giving at Boystown. In 2016 we brought in a carnival for the kids and food and supplies for all the residents, as well as renovating the basketball court and purchased new sports equipment for the kids.
We believe that giving our time and making authentic connections is a powerful way to spread hope to those who need it most.
“Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter.”
MARTIN LUTHER KING, BAPTIST MINISTER & CIVIL RIGHTS LEADER
“If you show people the problems and the solutions they will be moved to act.”
BILL GATES, BUSINESS MAGNATE & PHILANTHROPIST
“Overcoming poverty is not a gesture of charity. It is the protection of a fundamental human right, the right to dignity and a decent life.”
NELSON MANDELA, FORMER PRESIDENT OF SOUTH AFRICA
“Progress is not about adding more to the abundance of those who have much; it is whether we provide enough for those who have too little.”
FRANKLIN D. ROOSEVELT, 32ND PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES
The Foundlings House
We just completed renovating the “foundlings” home, a building that houses children 0-6 years of age.
With your generous donations we were able to fix the roof, renovate the kitchen, add 3 bathrooms, rehabilitate the outside play area and purchase beds to assure that every child had a comfortable place to sleep.
