Why are you raising money?
Mother’s Day isn’t easy as a single mom. More than 80% of single-parent families are headed by single moms (U.S. Census Bureau, 2020), and the effects of fatherlessness on our kids is astounding. The Single MOM KC is transforming the negative statistics that often surround fatherless children. This Mother’s Day, join me in raising money for an organization that brings hope to single mothers throughout the Kansas City Metro.
