Thankful

We are so very thankful to Gulf Coast Community Foundation for a generous grant for the Build a Brand...Build a Fund program.  This program will focus on building public awareness of Mothers Helping Mothers and in turn, increase financial support for the organization.  This funding is critical for the growth and sustainability of the organization.  Since its inception, Mothers Helping Mothers has been run by volunteers with no paid staff.  The volunteers have stayed busy with the day to day operations of the organization and helping those in need.  Little attention has been paid to growing the awareness and funding for the organization because there is simply not enough time or resources.  "We are so very excited to have received this grant from Gulf Coast Community Foundation.  It is our sincere hope that this funding will help Mothers Helping Mothers grow in numerous ways and be able to help even more people," said Madeline Brogan.

All For the New Arrival

Shelby is expecting her second son and recently visited Mothers Helping Mothers for the first time. Having been in the area for only a year, she asked around about a resource for mothers and children.  When she told people what she was looking for, everyone said the same thing-"Go to Mothers Helping Mothers!"  "this is my first time here," added Shelby "and it is definitely a great place."



All About the Bunny

 There is nothing to say about the picture below.  It is so cute that there are no words....



Cute x 2

These cute little men were shopping with their mom and grandmother at Mothers Helping Mothers recently.  They were defintiely pre-occupied with the toys and books, but I did manage to get a few cute shots!

These are some of the precious little faces that we see every week!  Doesn't it just make you want to help?  All you have to do is make a monetary contribution!  That will ensure that Mothers Helping Mothers is able to continue helping precious faces like the ones above!  Go to http://www.mhmsarasota.com/ for more information.

Great Resource

I spoke with Nellie recently, who is mom to five children under six years of age.  She told me that she comes to Mothers Helping Mothers quite often to stock up on clothing and other needs that pop up for her children.  "When I am done with the items I like to bring them back to Mothers Helping Mothers to help out others," said Nellie.  She also told me that she does not know what she would do without Mothers Helping Mothers.  "There are other resources in the communiity, but nothing like Mothers Helping Mothers."
