Childhood trauma and adversity are the root cause of the most urgent and costly problems that plague our children, families, and community. Childhaven meets families in all places where they live, learn, and play, including early learning centers, pediatric settings, community centers, elementary schools, and home visits. Childhaven is staffed by a dynamic and diverse team of therapists, care coordinators, teachers, and parent partners. 

Since 2015, we have raised almost $375,000 for Childhaven at our annual Holiday Giving Gala.

Rebuilding Together is a leading national nonprofit in safe and healthy housing with more than 40 years of experience. Our members join Rebuilding Together’s local affiliates and nearly 100,000 other volunteers to complete about 10,000 rebuild projects nationwide each year. WMFHA and our members have been able to transform the lives of low-income homeowners by improving the safety and health of their homes since 2015.

Move For Hunger works with over 700 relocation companies across the United States and Canada to collect non-perishable food items and deliver them to food banks. 

When our residents move out they often leave non-perishable food behind. Before Move For Hunger existed, this food was often just thrown out.
