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.
“Thank you so much for the generosity that helped give my children a chance to have fun and be happy during summer.”
“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.”
This year, the goal is to raise even more as we expect an increased need for assistance.

MEDFIELD FOUNDATION LEGACY FUND NOW ACCEPTING GRANT APPLICATIONS
​
The Medfield Foundation has announced that applications are now being accepted for its 2025 Legacy Fund Community Impact grants. Up to $40,000 in grants will be awarded, and any Medfield-based nonprofit or Town department is eligible. Applicants are welcome to submit a grant request online here by March 21st, 2025.
The Legacy Fund Committee will review all submissions and select the finalists who will be invited to PITCH IT!, a Shark Tank-type event to be held in person on April 16th, 2025. At PITCH IT!, applicants present their proposal, goals, and financial needs and directly engage with the Legacy Fund Committee on their projects. The Legacy Fund Committee will make its final selection of grant recipients for the 2025 funding round in May 2025.
The Medfield Foundation has awarded close to $100,000 over 5 years for the benefit of Medfield through its Legacy Fund Community Impact grants. Recipients include Cultural Alliance of Medfield, Friends of the MHS Theatre Society, Friends of the Medfield Rail Trail, Medfield Cares About Prevention, Medfield Outreach, The Peak House Heritage Center, Sustainable Medfield, Hinkley Helpers, Medfield TV, Kingsbury Pond Gristmill Committee, Zullo Gallery Center for Arts and Friends of the Dwight-Derby House.
Grantees have used their awards to further important projects in Medfield and in some cases to leverage significant additional resources such as matching grants or federal or state funding. This year’s applicants should be prepared to illustrate a strong and compelling current need for funds, and possibly present how those funds may generate additional investments from the Medfield community as well.
Act fast to take advantage of this spectacular opportunity!
