This year I had the honor to join the board of an amazing organization here in Chicago. New Moms exists to interrupt the cycle of poverty and create strong families. Their mission is to share the love of God by surrounding young moms and their children with everything they need to transform their lives, specifically focusing on housing, jobs, and family services.
I’ll be running/walking with Team New Moms in the Austin P.O.W.E.R. 5k on September 28. This is an organization working tirelessly to provide basic resources we take for granted to young mothers, along with the resources and skills that are so critical to independence and family stability.
Please join me in offering support to a young mother by making a donation to my page:
$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!
Your friendship and support mean a lot to me and to these mamas. Thank you!
