HOPE. COURAGE. COMMUNITY.
|
Bearing the full responsibility of parenthood and provision for a family is exhausting and often isolating. The Single MOM KC exists to offer the 61,000+ Single Mother Families in the Kansas City Metro Area the opportunity to join us in hope-filled community.
When you partner with The Single MOM KC, you don’t have to wonder if you are making a difference. You are providing a place where moms receive healing and hope to pass on to their children and others. You are helping them write a new story and begin a trajectory of hope.

Our Why
To Transform the Negative Effects of Fatherlessness
In Kansas City, 46% of our children are growing up In Single Parent Homes
compared to the national average of 34%
63% of youth suicides are from fatherless homes
85% of children who show behavior disorders come from homes without a father
Children growing up in single-parent families typically do not have the same economic or human resources available as those growing up in two-parent families
We believe we can bring positive change to these and other negative trends

What Single Mothers Are Saying
"When I suddenly became a single mom, I was devastated, ashamed, and lost and in such pain. The Single Mom KC gave this Mama and her broken family a place of love, acceptance and refuge. As each meeting would approach, I looked forward to the words of wisdom, compassion and encouragement spoken by the leaders to each woman, reaching us exactly where we were in this journey as a single mom. I thank the Lord for this sisterhood and I'm so proud to be a part of them.
