MISSION STATEMENT:
Magical Builders is a non-profit, 501(c)(3) organization formed
with the mission of unifying people to advance the well being of children
and their communities.
INSPIRATION:
The inspiration for Magical Builders came from the founders'
children, who decided that instead
of receiving presents for the holidays, they wanted to give "gifts" to friends
in need. As a result, Magical Builders utilizes the power of "children
giving to children" in all of its initiatives.
PHILOSOPHY:
By improving the lives of underprivileged children, we will greatly
strengthen our communities.

Initiatives:
Magical Builders is achieving its mission through various community-based
programs:
