About Us
Our organization was sparked by our founder's daughter Breanna, a Golisano Children's Hospital NICU survivor of a life threatening condition in  2001.  Mommies For Miracles, Inc.,  a 501C(3), Not for profit organization was established in August 2003.
Breanna continues to be our reason to believe in miracles!

Knowing now just how blessed we are to have healthy children in our lives and realizing there are many families not so fortunate, we are inspired to help make temporary separations due to illness or disability less stressful.  Our fundraising enables us to purchase comforting items that are typically not funded by the agencies caring for these children.

In doing so, we strive to show these children and their families that there is a reason to smile and hope for a happier, healthier tomorrow... maybe even a miracle.


How is this accomplished?
Through fundraising efforts, Mommies For Miracles, Inc. will supply items such as games, DVD's, pen-pal mail, movies, books, dolls, clothing and other comfort items to these children and their families.  All of this comes complete with big smiles, new found friendship and hope for the future!

Although these gestures may seem small, we feel that they are quite significant in the process of recovery for a child coping with an illness or disability. Comfort items can make all the difference in the life of these young and fragile children.


Not For Profits Helping Not For Profits - Together Bringing Smiles
and Sharing Hope!

Typically, what we do is hold fundraising events and with the money we raise WE purchase “wish list” items for other NFP organizations who care for children needing specialized services but don’t have funding for specific items of need (ie; hospitals PICU/NICU’s, +)

We choose organizations that do not get as much funding or community support where they are located and need more help. That’s where our modest, but very humble and sincere efforts come in. We make decision to hold an event benefiting that organization in hopes of raising enough money to purchase items for the children they assist while at their facility in an effort to surround them in a non stressed environment and bring to them some type of enjoyment and happiness during such traumatic times.  We want to let these kids and their families know that we share in their hope for a happy healthy tomorrow!

We are often asked 'why donate to MFM when donors can go right to the source?' Our response is that with the donations we receive, we do not turn it over in money form. We like to be certain that what we have been asked to raise the money for is how it will be used.

 So we actually make the purchase(s) and have it delivered to them or try to deliver it ourselves making it a very warm and personal transaction.

We are so excited about being able to do anything that will make a difference or put a smile on the face of a child who is going through tough times. We only wish we could do it more often. For now, Mommies For Miracles, Inc. is an organization consisting of a small group of full time working individuals with very big hearts and limited time. We volunteer our time as often as we can and just pray it helps!
