Love Medfield. Here are some meaningful ways to support it!

We have helped over 50 local non-profit initiative through our charitable platform, to support their fundraising efforts, such as Hinkley Helpers most recently.

We support Medfield residents directly, two examples: our Community Assistance Fund, helps local folks in need via emergency assistance, and our Camp Fund, sending local kids to summer camps.

Through the foundation’s Legacy Fund, a professionally managed endowment, we support community driven projects, through an annual grant program. Nearly $100,000 has been granted to local organizations like Medfield Outreach, Sustainable Medfield, and The Peak House Heritage Center, to name just a few.

Fairy Houses

Yesterday there was a fairy house event run by Kathleen Derian on the banks of Vine Brook at the Montrose School, that made hundreds of young kids really, really excited and happy. There were even pony rides on colorful unicorns!

The fairy house below was created by Kurt Jackson’s MAP kids, and was the largest and most elaborate of the fairy houses.

MFi 2025 Camp Fund Needs Your Help

Medfield Foundation 2025 Camp Fund Needs Your Help

Adults and children throughout Medfield have happy memories of summer camp. From a traditional experience in the woods, to skill building, to specialized camps, many Medfielders cherish these summer camp experiences and the friends they made there.   

Before the summer camp season begins, the Medfield Foundation is asking Medfield residents to help make summer camp accessible to all.   

Since 2017 the Medfield Foundation’s Camp Fund, thanks to the generosity of our Medfield donors, raised well over $55,000 to benefit more than 60 local families in offsetting costs in order to send their children to camps. Thanks to Medfielders’ generosity, scores of children from our town experienced the magic of a variety of summer camp sessions and swimming at Hinkley Pond. Some of our camper families’ related, “The program was a godsend that allowed me to keep my son with special needs in camp a few days a week so he could benefit from social interaction with his peers” and “Thank you so much for the generosity that helped give my children a chance to have fun and be happy during summer.”  

This year, the goal is to raise even more as we expect an increased need for assistance. 

The Medfield Foundation encourages you to make a tax deductible donation to help Medfield children attend summer camp! There are two easy ways to make your donation:

  1. Use this link to donate:  http://medfieldfoundation.org/donate/ 
  2. Send your check to the Medfield Foundation, PO Box 745, Medfield MA 02052.                  Please make your check out to Medfield Foundation, Inc and then please write “CAMP”      in the memo line! 

Want more information before donating? We invite you to reach out: info@medfieldfoundation.org

Medfield Foundation Inc.   PO Box 745    Medfield MA 02052

We hope you will consider donating to the Medfield Foundation Camp Fund to send a Medfield child to summer camp.
