“It takes a village to raise a child and a nation to support their Mom.”
Recently, the company also launched the non-profit arm of their business,. Their first fundraiser event was held in November 2022 in Atlanta, Georgia. For it, MommiNation partnered with The Boyce L. Ansley School—a tuition-free private school for kids experiencing homelessness in downtown Atlanta—and The White Dress Project. The goal was to raise money to provide food, shelter, clothing and employment to support displaced moms and their families.
MommiNation Gives is a new branch of your larger brand.

We now have access to financial resources we were unable to tap into before launching the nonprofit.
Community is such an important aspect of raising kids. Any advice for ways that new and soon-to-be parents can forge relationships and build community for their young families?Community is everything—and it’s a necessity when you’re raising children. It’s like our motto says: It takes a village to raise a child and a nation to support their Mom. Family can be an essential support system, but sometimes you have a completely different experience from those in your immediate circle.
