💜Our hearts are so full 💜

THANK YOU to every family, volunteer, donor, sponsor, community partner, speaker, board member, and supporter who joined us for Walk for Moms and stood with families in our community.

Another huge thank you to our incredible sponsors and partners who helped make this day possible. Thank you to our inspiring speakers who shared their stories and voices so courageously, helping raise awareness and break the stigma surrounding maternal mental health. Your willingness to speak openly creates healing and reminds families that they are never alone.

A special thank you to Marin County Board of Supervisors President for bringing his beautiful family and leading our symbolic walk, and to Maria Ni**le and First 5 Marin for showing up, speaking, and reaffirming their commitment to children and families. Seeing leaders stand publicly beside mothers, fathers, babies, and young children sends a powerful message: families matter, and this community stands behind them.

🙏 We left the event with something our team needed to hear and feel: we are not alone in this work.

📣 And because our village keeps showing up, we have exciting news: an incredibly generous supporter has stepped forward with 👏 ANOTHER $10,000 MATCHING GIFT 👏 challenge if we can raise it by the end of May! Every dollar donated will now be doubled.

We are still pushing toward our goal — because families cannot wait. Please donate, share, invite others, and help us bring this home. Together, we can continue building a community where mothers, fathers, and children feel seen, supported, and cared for.

We truly cannot do this alone.

We matched the full $30,000! Hooray! 🎉

Thank you to every person who donated, shared, fundraised, cheered us on, and stood beside us. Your support is making a real difference for families in our community.

And the momentum continues: more exciting news! Miller Avenue Advisors has stepped up with an additional matching gift and will match donations up to $2,500 if we raise it by Sunday, May 17! That brings our total matching opportunity to $32,500. We’re getting closer and closer to our goal — and we are incredibly grateful to everyone helping us get there.

Our Walk for Moms goal is to raise $100,000 so families can continue receiving the support they need — and your gift today goes twice as far. Every dollar donated will be doubled.

When a parent reaches out for help, your generosity helps ensure someone is there to answer. Keep the momentum going — we’re almost there!
