THE MINOR CONSORTIUM GROUP FOUNDATION
THE ALABASTER BOX EXPERIENCE
OUR STORY
Personal in Approach. Disciplined in Service.
TMCGF is a community-rooted organization shaped by lived experience, professional expertise, service, compassion, education, technology, and a commitment to helping people find practical pathways forward.
The organization brings together experience in veteran service, grief recovery, family resilience, education, mentoring, technology, community engagement, and collaborative service. Those capabilities are used to help people navigate challenges that can otherwise feel fragmented, confusing, or difficult to face alone.
Formally established in 2026, TMCGF builds upon earlier community service and family-focused outreach. The foundation is developing its programs deliberately around community needs, responsible stewardship, measurable outcomes, appropriate partnerships, and a commitment to personal, practical support as the organization grows.
Practical
Support is organized around useful next steps, resources, education, relationships, and access.
Responsible
Growth is pursued with accountability, evidence, stewardship, collaboration, and appropriate boundaries.
