Every year we donate a portion of the proceeds from the St. Barbara Greek Festival to a local charity.
For 2024, we have chosen Mothers Helping Mothers. We love the support they give to local families and we are thrilled to be able to assist in that mission.

A little bit about Mothers Helping Mothers:
For over three decades, our 501(c)(3) not-for-profit has been supporting local families in need by fostering resiliency, self-sufficiency and family stability.
Thanks to generous donors, grant funding, and a volunteer-only staff, we have been able to serve over 4,000 families each year through our storefront, representing an average of 11,000 children annually.
Since 2020, we purchased our building and converted to solar, nearly eliminating our entire overhead. This allows us to redirect nearly 100% of every dollar donated back into our client programs.
MHM works directly with other local charities and agencies. By sharing services, our hope is to work together to lighten the burden for struggling families in our community.
