This year marks my fourth year running for Team New Moms and my second year coordinating the event as the New Moms Associate Board's Event Chair.
This event holds such a special place for me and my family. Jack 'ran' the race with me while I was 5 months pregnant and then last year was his first volunteer experience (Jack and Chris manned the water station and cheered me on while I ran my first run post-pregnancy).
New Moms has allowed my family to come together and support an amazing cause - helping to empower young moms to build a better life for themselves and their children.
To get an idea of what your generosity can do for mothers and their children at New Moms:
$25 can support diapers and formula for 1 family for a week.
$55 can support 1 night of housing for a young mom and her child.
$115 can support 1 month of one month of unlimited transportation for a participant, removing barriers for her to travel to our Job Training program and access childcare for her family.
$450 can fund a baby shower for our prenatal support group moms-to-be!
