The mission of the MAGIC Charities Foundation is to advocate for and invest in the well-being of children.

Our vision is a world that, above all, values our children's health, education, safety, and family relationships.

Mental Health Matters. Especially for Children in Foster Care.

For many children, entering foster care doesn't erase what happened before they arrived there.

Abuse, neglect, loss, separation from family, changes in caregivers, and uncertainty can all affect a child's emotional well-being. The American Academy of Pediatrics identifies mental and behavioral health as the largest unmet health need for children and teens in foster care.

On World Mental Health Day, we're recognizing why supporting a child's mental health must be part of supporting the whole child.

Throughout MAGIC's 10-year journey, we've invested in children and families touched by foster care and adoption by providing grants for trauma-informed counseling, sponsoring therapeutic experiences, and funding educational advocacy through the MAGIC Advocacy Program (MAP).

Providing a child with a safe home matters, but so does ensuring they have access to the support, stability, and services they need to heal and thrive.

As we celebrate our accomplishments, we remain committed to investing in more than a child's immediate needs. We're investing in their well-being and their future.

🍎 Healthy Habits Start Young

On National Child Health Day, we’re highlighting one way MAGIC has invested in helping children build healthier futures: giving them the knowledge to make informed choices about the foods they eat.

Over the past six years, MAGIC Executive Director Sharon Grosso has taught nutrition classes for children at Neighborhood First, making healthy eating practical, interactive, and fun.

In these classes, kids have learned how to read nutrition labels, recognize how much sugar hides in some of their favorite foods, understand the importance of fruits and vegetables, and discover how everyday food choices can support their growing bodies.

The goal has never been to tell children they can’t enjoy their favorite treats. It’s to provide them with information they can use to make healthier choices for themselves, knowledge they can carry well beyond the classroom.

These classes are another example of what investing in children can look like.
Sometimes it’s providing a nutritious meal.

Sometimes it’s making sure a child has food during a school break.

Sometimes it’s giving children the tools and knowledge to start making healthier choices that can last a lifetime. ❤️

On World Teachers’ Day, we’re celebrating the educators who show up every day ready to teach, encourage, guide, and help students reach their potential.

Over the years, MAGIC has invested in students throughout the Centennial School District, including our longstanding work with Klinger Middle School and Willow Dale Elementary School, and this year, expanding our support to McDonald Elementary School.

🎒 At Klinger Middle School, MAGIC has helped students start the school year prepared by providing backpacks filled with essential school supplies. Through Warm Kids, Warm Hearts, we have also distributed new winter coats at Klinger, helping students stay warm throughout the colder months.

🍎 At Willow Dale Elementary, MAGIC Meals has provided nutritious breakfasts and lunches for students during school breaks, helping fill the gap when school meals aren't available.

🎒 And this year, MAGIC expanded our back-to-school initiative to McDonald Elementary, providing 300 backpacks filled with school supplies for students.
From backpacks and school supplies to nutritious meals and warm winter coats, each investment helps remove barriers that can keep a child from arriving at school ready to learn.

We’re proud of the impact we've made alongside educators who see firsthand what their students need and work every day to help them succeed.

To the teachers we work with and teachers throughout our community, thank you for the difference you make in children's lives every day. ❤️

FORE the Love of Golf! ⛳ It's National Golf Lovers’ Day, and we know MAGIC has quite a few golf lovers in our community!

For the past six years, golfers, sponsors, volunteers, and supporters have joined us on the course for the annual MAGIC Golf Outing, turning a day of friendly competition into an opportunity to invest in children.

Every foursome that tees off. Every sponsorship. Every golfer who comes back year after year. You help MAGIC put resources directly into programs, scholarships, grants, and initiatives that support children and families in our community.

As we celebrate MAGIC’s 10th Birthday this month, we’re especially grateful for the golf community that has been part of our story for more than half of our journey.

So today, we’re celebrating all our MAGIC golf lovers and six years of great swings, memorable moments, and impact beyond the course. 🏌️‍♀️🏌️‍♂️

Thank you for teeing it up for the kids year after year!

Ten years ago, MAGIC began with an idea and an invitation.

In October 2016, Steve and Sharon Grosso invited friends, colleagues, and community members to their home. They shared their vision for MAGIC, talked about the children and families they wanted to serve, and invited them to join them on a new journey.

That gathering marked the launch of MAGIC.

Ten years later, look at what that idea has become.

Because donors, volunteers, businesses, and community members chose to be part of that invitation, MAGIC has turned generosity into measurable impact:

🍎 17,000 nutritious meals provided to 4,000 students
🎒 2,500 students reached with backpacks and school supplies, including 700 in 2026.
🧥 More than 1,290 warm winter coats provided to children
🎓 Scholarships awarded to create opportunities for higher education and summer camp
❤️ Therapeutic programs sponsored for children and families in the foster care and adoption community
📚 Grants given to fund educational advocacy, counseling, essential resources, enrichment programs, and other opportunities for children and families

Those numbers tell an important story: MAGIC puts donor dollars to work.
A donation can become a meal for a student, a backpack filled with school supplies, a warm winter coat, a scholarship, educational advocacy, or access to an opportunity a child might not otherwise have.

Throughout October, as we celebrate MAGIC’s 10th Birthday, we’ll share more of the milestones, investments, and stories that show exactly what ten years of MAGIC has accomplished.

Ten years ago, we invited a group of friends to be part of an idea. Today, we invite you to see the impact that idea has made.

This is 10 Years of MAGIC. ❤️

The Invitation: Be Part of the Idea That Became MAGIC

Ten years ago, Steve and Sharon gathered a group of friends, shared an idea for MAGIC, talked about the children and families they hoped to serve, and asked those friends to join them on a new journey.

That invitation launched MAGIC.

This October, as we celebrate ten years since the founding of the MAGIC Charities Foundation, we’re extending that invitation again.

Throughout the month, we’ll look back at how one idea grew into ten years of action: from providing over 17,000 nutritious meals to 4,000 students to distributing thousands of backpacks and school supplies, providing warm winter coats, awarding scholarships, giving grants, sponsoring programs, and funding educational advocacy and other critical support for children and families.

We’ll share the stories behind those numbers so you can see how MAGIC has turned donor support into meaningful impact.

And because our work continues, we’ll also use October to highlight issues affecting the children and families we serve, with information and resources to help families better understand and advocate for their children.

Ten years ago, we invited our community to believe in an idea and our mission “to advocate for and invest in the well-being of children.”

Today, we invite you to see how this idea has helped thousands of children and continues to help us make an impact. ❤️

Welcome to MAGIC’s 10th Birthday Month. 🎂

Building Brighter Futures Together

As September comes to a close, we're reflecting on a month dedicated to raising awareness of two issues that profoundly affect children's lives: childhood hunger and kinship care.

Throughout the month, we shared stories, statistics, and resources that highlighted the importance of ensuring every child has access to nutritious food, a safe and supportive home, and opportunities to learn, grow, and thrive.

We're grateful for the community partners, volunteers, donors, advocates, and supporters who help turn compassion into action every day. Because of your generosity, children received nutritious MAGIC Meals during school breaks, backpacks and school supplies to start the school year with confidence, scholarships to pursue their dreams, and support through programs that strengthen foster, adoptive, and kinship families.

While Hunger Action Month and Kinship Care Month may be ending, our commitment to children and families continues every day of the year.

Thank you for being part of this journey and for helping us create brighter futures, one child, one family, and one act of kindness at a time.

Hunger Action Day: Every Action Makes a Difference

Today is Hunger Action Day, a reminder that ending childhood hunger begins with all of us.

Hunger isn't always visible. It can affect children in every community, making it harder for them to concentrate in school, stay healthy, and achieve their full potential. According to Feeding America, 1 in 5 children in the United States lives in a food-insecure household. That's millions of children who may not know where their next meal will come from.

At MAGIC, we're committed to helping close that gap. Since the program began, we've provided 17,000 MAGIC Meals to 3,799 students because no child should have to face hunger when school is out.

Today, you can make a difference by taking one simple action:
🥫 Donate food to your local pantry.
🤝 Volunteer your time.
📢 Advocate for policies that support children and families.
❤️ Support organizations working to fight food insecurity in your community.

Together, every action, no matter how small, helps create a future where every child has the nourishment they need to learn, grow, and thrive.

Family Is Built on Love, Support, and Belonging

Today, on National Family Day, we celebrate the many ways families are formed and the important role they play in helping children grow, heal, and thrive.

Families come in many forms: biological, adoptive, foster, kinship, and chosen. What matters most is not how a family is formed, but the love, stability, encouragement, and sense of belonging it provides.

For some children, family is a grandparent who steps in without hesitation. An aunt or uncle who opens their home. Foster parents who provide safety during a difficult time. Adoptive parents who offer a forever family. Every family has the power to shape a child's future.

Today, we celebrate all families and the caregivers who show up each day with patience, compassion, and unconditional love. Thank you for creating safe places where children feel valued, supported, and empowered to reach their full potential.

Happy National Family Day!

Supporting Children Through Meaningful Investment

When a child is unexpectedly removed from their parents’ home, they may have little time to gather clothing, toiletries, school supplies, or even the comfort items that make an unfamiliar situation feel a little less overwhelming.

At the same time, grandparents, relatives, and other kinship caregivers may suddenly find themselves caring for a child with little time to prepare.

Through our grants, sponsorships, and community investments, MAGIC helps provide organizations with the resources they need to meet these challenges and directly support children and families.

One of those community partners is Fostering Hope—Lower Bucks, which provides foster, adoptive, and kinship families with access to essentials like clothing, toiletries, baby equipment, and school supplies.

By investing in organizations already doing important work in our communities, MAGIC helps expand their ability to reach more children, meet immediate needs, and provide support when it matters most.

During National Kinship Care Month, we celebrate the caregivers who step forward to provide stability, love, and belonging, and the organizations working alongside them to ensure they have the support they need.
