Join  Our Mission

The Mama Bear Foundation welcomes fundholders, funders, non-profit organizations and other community members to participate in our work actively.

We believe that connecting donors' philanthropic interests to critical state imperatives and pooling their dollars with our own enables us to have a greater collective impact on issues that matter to all of us.

​

Mama Bear Foundation is a non-profit organization dedicated to serving American families in need of affordable legal, educational, and social services — a place they can turn to when they need help.

Our foundation also supports immigrants and refugees, helping them understand how the U.S. legal system works and avoid mistakes that could jeopardize their chance for a better life.
