Give · Support the mission

Every gift sets mercy in motion.

Foster families rarely need something huge. They need dinner on placement night, a car seat by Friday, a background-checked volunteer who shows up. Your gift makes all of it possible — before crisis, not after.

Give securely

Giving takes about a minute on our secure Givebutter page — one time or monthly, in any amount.

Monthly gifts are the steadiest way to stand with foster families — even $10 a month adds up to real help.

Mercy in Motion Foundation is an Alaska nonprofit corporation and a recognized 501(c)(3) tax-exempt public charity. Contributions are tax-deductible to the extent allowed by law.

Where your gift goes

Small dollars, working early.

  • Keeps GoodSam free for every foster family

    Servers, safety features, and real human support — families never pay a cent to ask for help.

  • Covers volunteer background checks

    Screening volunteers for sensitive roles costs real money per person. Your gift means trust is never rationed.

  • Meets needs no one has claimed yet

    Gas cards, groceries, car seats, beds — when a posted need goes unanswered, we can step in directly.

  • Equips churches and partners

    Tools that help congregations and organizations surround local families with steady, coordinated care.

Your tax-deductible receipt arrives instantly by email.

Give by card, bank transfer, PayPal, Venmo, Apple Pay, or Google Pay.

You can cover processing costs so 100% of your gift reaches the mission.
