Giving Basics 

            Missouri Baptist Children’s Home is one of a few child care agencies in Missouri that still provide benevolent care. In 2007, nearly 60% of the services of MBCH were funded by charitable resources. Our children and youth depend upon the generosity of people and organizations who understand the tremendous need and have the financial resources to provide for their care.
            The MBCH Foundation staff has special training and expertise in charitable giving and estate planning techniques. Our Development Officers are expert in helping you plan your gifts in ways that can allow you to 1) increase your current income, 2) reduce your current and future taxes, 3) reduce or eliminate the cost of probate and 4) not disadvantage your heirs.
            The MBCH Foundation staff is backed by expert financial counselors who can provide sound advice for any area of planning. When needed, these outside legal and financial planning consultants are available.

Development Officers and Territories

            The MBCH Foundation employs four professional development officers who live and serve in each area of Missouri. The following map shows the division of the state by development officer:  Travis Hanna, Billy Massey, James Morrow, Keith Vawter and Sandy Woodside. The MBCH Foundation also has two staff members with state-wide responsibilities: Chief Operations Officer Robert C. Springate and Director of Advancement Linda (Ragusky) Buschman. Additionally, President Bob Kenison has state-wide responsibilities and also serves the northeast corner of Missouri.
