What are the most immediate needs to support your organization?
For the children, families and neighborhood we serve, CFUM is a place where they can feel welcomed, safe and cared for. As we look forward into the future, we aim to provide that same feeling to more people throughout the north side of Des Moines by expanding our programs to more elementary schools and their corresponding neighborhoods, as well as by following our CFUM students as they move on to higher grades after they finish elementary school. This takes a community working together to provide these supports, and we hope that you will come alongside us.
