My husband and I were first introduced to MOM through Blackhawk Church. As a member of Blackhawk for over 15 years, there were regular opportunities to support MOM through food and school supply drives. With elementary and middle school-aged children, we have seen the impact MOM has in the community, serving many families within our neighborhood and school district. Over the years, I was also able to engage in workplace projects with MOM and find opportunities to serve alongside my family at the food pantry and the Holiday Art Market. I have always admired the mission of MOM, anchoring to the most critical issues of food and housing to love and support our neighbors in the area. Beyond volunteering my time with MOM, and financially supporting MOM’s efforts, I am privileged to now join the board at MOM to continue to support this great mission for years to come.
