Why MIFA?

  • MIFA works to unite our diverse community to address the challenges of poverty.
  • MIFA sustains the independence of seniors, transforms the lives of families in crisis, and equips teens for success.
  • MIFA provides basic services with big results: a home-delivered meal keeps a senior in her home; a mortgage payment prevents foreclosure; a college application is the first step to a degree.
  • MIFA remains true to its multi-faith roots and offers volunteers of all faiths, backgrounds, and ages opportunities to deliver MIFA's services to the community.
  • MIFA consistently addresses Memphis' most pressing needs. Today, in an unstable economic climate, MIFA lightens the burden for the most vulnerable among us.
