Audits and 990s

The Maddox Fund is committed to being deeply rooted in the Middle Tennessee community.  “Undergirding this commitment is the conviction that all human beings are interconnected, not just with one another, but with all of nature – a belief that makes our desire to foster connection and a sense of belonging even more urgent.” We believe that our shared liberation is intertwined—tied in a single garment of destiny.

Through the year, we offer several pathways to communication with the Maddox Fund, including:  Listening Meetings, scheduled 1-on-1 CHAT conversations and surveys,  as well as walking and coffee meetings.  Maddox staff is always available to you.  Please reach out any time.  If you prefer, you can use this link to anonymously submit feedback on a specific staff member or to the organization as a whole.  Your viewpoint is valued and can make us better community members.  Thank you in advance for your comments.
