About this service
Food insecurity is one of the most significant barriers to a familys ability to thrive. Grocery support is a vital way to relieve stress on low-income moms and improve outcomes for their children.
Prior to joining Mom2Mom, the families we serve all relied on the foodbank. Yet, even with this resource, 72% of mothers newly joining Mom2Mom report they very often or often worry that food will run out before they have money to buy more. 50% skip meals or eat less to help make food last longer for their children.
To address this issue, Mom2Mom provides a monthly grocery stipend based on the number of children our participant moms have living with them. This is predominately delivered through our Relationship Volunteers who take their participant mom grocery shopping once a month. When this is not possible, moms will receive a grocery gift card instead.
