A Radiant Start, Thanks to Your Generosity!

Thanks to over 1,000 generous supporters like you, we exceeded our $50,000 fundraising target in late 2017, empowering women and families.

A Radiant Start, Thanks to Your Generosity!

Together, we achieved it!

During the closing weeks of 2017, more than a thousand kind-hearted individuals like you contributed to our cause, enabling us to go beyond our $50,000 target for women and families.

We are deeply grateful for your membership in the MomsRising community.

In 2018, here’s how we plan to put your generosity to work:

  • MOBILIZE a huge number of moms to vote in the midterm elections via our #MomsVote initiative.
  • PROTECT health coverage with all our might, including the Affordable Care Act, Medicare, Medicaid, and CHIP.
  • STAND UP, with compassion, against discrimination, bigotry, sexism, and hatred, while advocating for policies that safeguard families and communities.
  • ADVANCE family economic security reforms—such as equal pay, paid family and medical leave, and sick days—at every government level to help women, families, and the economy flourish.
  • GROW our #KeepMarching program, offering direct support and training to passionate grassroots leaders like you so you can start a MomsRising action group in your own community.

We won’t claim any of this will be simple. Under the Trump administration, we are confronting some of the toughest obstacles our movement has ever faced.

Yet we are stronger than ever. And with your ongoing support guiding us, we will become even more determined in our resistance. I have faith in us, and I know you share that belief.

Thank you for stepping up when it counts. Your daily inspiration fuels our work.
