donate to our family fund
Friends of McPherson has started a Family Fund. We realize that for many people this pandemic has led to lost income, healthcare expenses, or other instability – and that impact will be felt far beyond the day the family is fully vaccinated.
Others of us have navigated relatively minor challenges during the pandemic and are in a good position to afford our weekly groceries and other expenses.
If you would like more information about giving or receiving through our Family Fund, please click here.
