Savannah + St. Joseph, Missouri

Local help for kids.

We connect community generosity with children and families across Northwest Missouri.

Community-led. Ready when local needs arise.

Built to respond to real local needs.

Founded by Ed and Ashley Stroud in 2021, Moving for Munchkins is a 501(c)(3) private foundation based in Savannah, Missouri. We bring people, resources, and local organizations together to support children and families when an opportunity to help appears.

How we show up

Our work changes with the need. The purpose stays the same: practical help for local children.

Essential-needs drives

Food, coats, toys, and sports equipment gathered with help from employees, neighbors, and local partners.

Community events

Fundraisers and sponsored events that turn a shared occasion into support for children.

Local partnerships

Working alongside organizations that already know the families and needs in our communities.

Fundraising and direct support

Mobilizing financial and material resources when a local opportunity calls for action.

A meaningful connection with the Noyes Home

M4M has supported The Noyes Home for Children through fundraising and community events, including Take a Seat: All In for Children.
