Our Mission 

The Charity Pros come together to advocate for children’s social causes and expand their opportunities to live their best lives. Our dedication and commitment to children drive the Charity Pros to grow and expand. We promise to bring all the joy and happiness we can to these brave young hearts through our fundraising efforts, cause programs, and support provided to our partnering children’s charities.

Our Story

Founded in 2019 by young entrepreneur Megan Maloney, The Charity Pros started as a group of friends and family, all holding a true passion for making a difference in the lives of children in our community. With a focus on children’s health, poverty, education, protection, and equality, the Charity Pros also provide support for other local non-profit organizations that meet the direct needs of children. Our vision is that every child has the same opportunities no matter their obstacle. 

The passion started in 2009 when Megan was only 11 years old and lost three family members to cancer. Her life goal quickly became a way to make a difference for children and families in extraordinary circumstances. Coin drives and other fundraisers in grade school, along with participating in the first "Stand Up to Cancer" global event in Hollywood, led to interviews on news radio and an invite to be on ELLEN. Megan continued her effort to change the world by partnering with other charities to help raise money for their many causes. Megan worked through college as a food server with a clear vision to launch her organization in Ft. Myers in 2019. The Charity Pros is an all-volunteer-led organization; there are no paid staff or employees, just incredible folks who love to help make a difference in our community. 

What We Do

The Charity Pros advocate and support children’s cause programs for Health, Child Protection, Poverty, Education, and Equality. In addition, we facilitate the Megan’s Wish program, with a mission to grant the wishes of children with life-threatening medical conditions or those suffering from circumstances like losing a parent or guardian to enrich their life experience with love, hope, and strength. 

The Charity Pros have hosted several community events, including hurricane relief efforts to transport and distribute hurricane supplies to the hardest hit neighborhoods. Working with the Lee County Sheriff's Office and the Florida Department of Children, the Charity Pros have hosted massive toy drives and organized "Shop with Santa" Christmas parties for hundreds of children and families to support other local kids' charities. The organization has also produced big-name charity concerts and festivals at Hertz Arena and Hammond Stadium, featuring Matchbox Twenty, Foreigner, John Fogerty, and more, while honoring local Heroes and first responders and raising tens of thousands for local children's charities that need funding. These achievements demonstrate the Charity Pros's significant impact on the local community.
