Mission Statement
Chummy’s mission is to provide children of all ages with volunteer opportunities so they can: 1) help others, and 2) experience the joy of giving back. Our projects benefit people and organizations in the Dane County area and beyond.
How Chummy Works
Chummy Board members and/or parent helpers partner with a non-profit or charity in the Dane County area to organize an event (location, presentation, activity, etc.)
Chummy makes a donation to the nonprofit or charity partner to offset the “cost” of small volunteers, including supplies or presentation fees (not applicable for all projects)
Interested families sign up to participate per event at chummy.org (participation is free)
How Chummy is Funded
Chummy is a nonprofit organization and is privately funded. Joining Chummy is free and there are no membership fees. For some projects, families have the opportunity to bring in-kind donations (for example, cereal for the food pantry) - but this is always optional.
