About

Just as McQuaid’s philosophy is to guide students to be “Men for Others,” the mothers of those young men are accomplished, giving and want to share their gifts and talents as well.

Mothers for Others coordinates outings to local non-profit groups and charities. We lend our strong, helping hands in serving, sewing, cooking, building, and more as we grow in community with our neighbors, model service for our sons, and get to know the great women who are raising them. All guardians (male or female) are welcome.

I just wanted to congratulate you for thinking of a mother/son volunteer activity. Our lives are so busy that finding time to truly do things together is scarce. This is really a wonderful opportunity for our sons to really ‘do as we do’ rather than just shipping them off to an activity on their own! I hope you do more of these.

Oh my gosh!!! I wish you could have seen their faces. The kids were so excited picking out the gifts!!! The kids felt so good and proud to have something to give to their mom. They wrapped the gifts and made cards to go with them. What you and the other moms did for our families is amazing and you gave them peace and joy when making the wreaths. The clients who made wreaths are still talking about it.
