COVID 19: Moms making a difference!
All moms are making difference right now. Whether you are isolated at home with little kids or a new baby, working and trying to help your older kids stay on track, or perhaps you are working in a long term care home, grocery store or hospital. Bravo to all of you. The following moms have found time, energy and a desire to raise awareness or funds during this very trying time and we’d like to salute them.

Arlyn Bantog
Hand Crafted Masks
100% of proceeds to for the Food Bank
This mom has made 90 masks and raised $1465 for the food bank! She chose to donate to the food “because my love language is food and this is a challenging time for so many. What started out as an activity to manage my anxiety has turned into something so much more fulfilling, I can’t even describe it but it’s kind of warm and squishy. Your generosity and kind words have filled my heart with so much joy.”
