Service
The greatest gift you can give is yourself. We show up with our time, our care, and our full effort for the causes we take on.
About Us
Empowering the people who help others.
The McCown Charitable Foundation strengthens charitable organizations through strategic support and collaborative events, so the people doing the hard work can do even more.
Who is MCF
A family tradition of giving.
The McCown Charitable Foundation was founded in 2024 by Lawrence McCown. Originally from Texas and now based in New Jersey, Lawrence comes from a family with a deep tradition of service, and started MCF to carry that legacy forward.
From funding the search for cures, to reaching families in disaster zones, to caring for children living in poverty, MCF partners with organizations and individuals who need support to keep going. We raise the funds, build the partnerships, and make every resource go further.
We are a 501(c)(3) charitable foundation. Every event we host is built to send real, measurable support to a deserving cause.
What guides us
The values behind every event.
Four principles shape the way we work and the partners we choose.
Compassion
We lead with kindness, especially for those who are struggling quietly, and we treat every partner and family with dignity.
Faith and follow-through
We believe small acts of kindness change lives, and we make sure the proceeds reach the organizations we set out to support.
Partnership
We strengthen the charities already doing the work rather than competing with them, multiplying impact through collaboration.
"We exist simply to help anyone in need."Lawrence McCown · Founder & President
