Five Ways to Honor a Mother’s Love on Mother’s Day
At CMMB, we are endlessly inspired by the mothers we serve. With determination, resilience, and sacrifice, they help create a brighter future for their children and their communities. A mother’s love is a force for change, even in the world’s most vulnerable places. On Mother’s Day, we honor mothers and mother figures everywhere. Here are five ways to show how much we care for the women who care so much for us:
1. Share a Mother’s Day Card
A mother’s love can make all the difference. Celebrate the caring mothers and mother figures by sharing CMMB’s beautiful digital Mother’s Day card. Personalize this free, downloadable card with your own message. It’s the perfect way to express gratitude to mothers, wives, grandmothers, aunts, sisters, and other important mother figures in your life.
2. Make a Donation in Her Name
Mothers and mother figures shape our lives in special ways. Honor the important women in your life with a monthly donation that has the power to improve the lives of mothers and families in Kenya, Peru, and Haiti. CMMB’s Sustainable Livelihood program supports struggling families, delivering financial security that helps mothers pursue education for themselves and their children, start a small business, and pay for medical care.
3. Lift Her Up with Uplifting Messages
Our mothers are often our biggest supporters. On Mother’s Day, and all year long, make time to inspire her. Let your mother or mother figure know you are thinking of her by sharing motivational messages that fill her with hope. Need ideas? Sign up for CMMB’s Sunday Inspiration email and receive positive messages in your inbox each week.
4. Share What She Means to You
The mothers and mother figures in our lives are one of a kind! Share her story—and what she means to you—on social media so the world knows how special she is. For more inspiring examples of motherhood, visit CMMB’s blog. Here, we profile incredible women making a difference in their communities, like Nurse Irene, who protects tiny babies fighting for their lives in a neonatal unit in Kenya, and Inés, a mother in Peru who felt called to serve as a community health worker.
5. Show Love to Others
A mother’s love is a ripple that grows outward. Honor the love shared with you by showing love to people near and far. Living your life with kindness and in service to others is an impactful way to honor the women who inspire you. Explore CMMB’s volunteer program, including remote opportunities, and help us work for healthier lives worldwide.
CMMB Invests in Mothers Around the World
On Mother’s Day, many of us take time to honor those whose presence has helped us grow into the person we are today. Yet one day is not enough to celebrate everything mothers do.
At CMMB, we witness mothers who walk hours to find clean, safe water for their families. We watch them advocate tirelessly for their children living with disabilities, even when no one else will. And we cheer for them when they discover that by empowering themselves, they can alter their family’s path.
Mothers are uniquely invested in the future. At CMMB, we invest in women because women invest in others. On Mother’s Day, and always, we are grateful for the mothers and mother figures who nurture, protect, and love us.
