In Honor of Mom
This Mother’s Day, we're inviting you to join a special Mother’s Day project: a way to honor the moms in your life, your congregation, and your community, and help struggling moms right here in New Jersey.
Why Your Help Matters
​Here at The Maker’s Place, we’ve come to realize something: nobody works as hard as a mom and the community of moms we connect with really depend on our programs. We are honored to be a part of their stories. Last year, over 1,500 moms and caregivers requested diapers from us because they were struggling to afford essential items, like diapers, for their little ones. We distributed 300,000 diapers to 1 in 3 children in Trenton--that's over 25,000 diapers each month!
​
​Our budding neighborhood resource center is blooming...We provided 300 new early childhood books to build home libraries through our Above & Beyond Literacy program. We nurtured generations of women through our YOUFirst Motherhood Community Group, so moms have access to needed tools and mental health resources to care for themselves, too. If mom is okay, then her family is okay because again, nobody works as hard as mom.
How to Make A Difference
Please consider what you can give and share as generously as you can. You can donate online or write to "The Maker's Place" at P.O. Box 54, Trenton NJ 08601.
​
When you make a donation in honor of or in memory of a special woman in your life, we'll publish the name of your honoree on our website, letting them know that essential items and support services have been donated to a Trenton-area mom in their name!
