Frequently Asked Questions

MAEVE is a nonprofit moms group dedicated to providing support, resources, and community for mothers. Our organization arranges events, creates a network for moms to connect and share experiences, and engages in service projects throughout the year to give back to the community.

Our group is open to all mothers, regardless of age, background, sexual orientation, or parenting style. Any mom looking for support and community is welcome to join.

We serve Lathrop, Manteca, Ripon and the surrounding areas.

We host a variety of events, including playdates, field trips, social gatherings, and fundraisers. We also organize special events for holidays and community service projects.

We participate in various community service projects such as organizing donation drives, volunteering at local shelters, supporting food banks, and participating in community clean-up events. Our group also collaborates with local charities to support their initiatives.

As a member-supported nonprofit, we rely on the contributions of our members, supplemented by fundraising, to sustain our chapter's operations, mission, and expenses. While monetary donations are greatly appreciated, they are not required. If you're unable to give financially, there are numerous ways you can support the chapter with your time and effort.

We have a monthly calendar filled with both mom-focused and kid-friendly events throughout the month. Our schedule is flexible to accommodate different needs and interests.

Our group is not affiliated with any religious organizations. We are inclusive and welcome members from all backgrounds.

While our primary focus is on supporting moms, we sometimes host family-friendly events where dads and other family members are welcome to participate.

Our members have access to a private online community of moms for support and connection.

As a member, you'll have access to the full calendar of member only events, in addition to our monthly newsletter, which includes updates on upcoming events, community initiatives, and other important news. You can access this through our online community once your membership is set up.

Donations can be made directly through Zelle (southsanjoaquin@wearemaeve.org), PayPal, or Venmo. We appreciate any support, whether financial or in-kind contributions. Volunteering time is equally valuable for those unable to give monetarily.

We are always looking for volunteers to help plan and execute our events, support our service projects, and strengthen our community. Whether you have a few hours to give or want to take on a bigger role, your time and talents are welcome and valued. To get involved, simply contact us and let us know you’re interested-we’d love to connect and find the perfect opportunity for you to make a difference alongside us.
