The Wayland Community Fund is available to help Wayland residents in financial need.  In the past eighteen years the WCF has provided over $500,000 in assistance to people in Wayland who can’t pay their rent, who are behind in utility payments, who need help with medical expenses, food, children’s clothes and many other items.

Most of the people who are helped have multiple problems including health and medical issues, unemployment, and homelessness.  Some are grandparents living on social security while supporting children.  Mothers with children and no home have been helped as well as teenagers with no family or economic resources.

The Wayland Community Fund is staffed by five unpaid volunteers.  They receive no public or taxpayer funding.  There are no overhead costs as the volunteers pay for mailing, brochure preparation, printing and all incidental expenses.  One hundred percent of every dollar contributed goes directly towards people in Wayland.
