WEBB INSURANCE GROUP DONATES CAR SEATS
Mothers Trust Foundation and Webb Insurance Group are excited to announce their new partnership for 2021. This past year, MTF has seen an increase in requests from local agencies to provide the basics for young mothers in our community. In just the last 9 months, MTF has provided more than 150 car seats to needy families in Lake County. Chris Webb, owner of Webb Insurance Group in Lake Forest, recognizes the need to protect these littlest members of our community and is proud to help. In 2021, Webb Insurance Group will donate one car seat to Mothers Trust Foundation for every insurance policy reviewed. To have your policy reviewed and to help provide a car seat for those who need it most, please contact Chris at (312) 208-1096
THE BIG BASH WAS A BIG SUCCESS!
We may have had to celebrate our annual MTF Bash with virtual video campaigns, but that didn't stop the giving!

Thanks to you, we raised over $46K so that kids could transition to remote learning and all babies could have safe baby gear.

MTF TEENS COAT GIVEAWAY
SPREADS THE WARMTH
Thank you to all of our SNOW ANGELS who donated and volunteered for our annual coat drive!

Due to Covid restrictions, we held our first drive thru distribution. Thank you Foss Park District and the City of North Chicago for ensuring that all volunteers and families were safe during our event.

Because of YOU, we were able to serve 300+ families and spread the warmth by giving away 2500+ winter gear items.



HUGS FOOD DRIVE
FEEDING OUR COMMUNITY
520 Thanksgiving meal bags were delivered this year to 5 local food pantries. We were also able to provide $1,650 in Jewel gift cards to the pantries for their use in purchasing fresh turkeys to finish out the meal.

Please consider a year end gift to MTF
WHEN THE WORLD SEEMED TO SHUT DOWN, MOTHERS TRUST FOUNDATION DID NOT.
Our work for 2020 may be coming to a close, but 2021 is sure to raise its own challenges. Help us continue to assist the kids who need it most. Thank you for your support and generosity.
