Dear Lucas,
Mother's Day is the time to celebrate the woman who's always been there for you -- who's shaped your life, inspired your dreams and cheered for you along the way.
In appreciation for all she's done for you, make a gift to Share Our Strength in honor of your mother -- and send her a lovely e-card to let her know how your gift will help another mother whose family is struggling with hunger.
Take a mother like Nancy Carbajal. Nancy is a great mom, but she struggled to provide meals for her three growing sons -- let alone to stretch her limited budget into a nutritious dinner for her entire household. Thanks to Share Our Strength's Cooking Matters program, Nancy learned more than just kitchen skills -- she gained a real understanding of nutrition, meal planning, and budgeting that will help her provide her family with healthy and affordable meals for years to come.
Mothers like Nancy are at the center of our efforts to bring an end to childhood hunger in America by 2015. And when you make a gift of $5, $10, $100, or more , you will be helping moms like Nancy get the tools and resources they need to feed their children with healthy meals every day. Our grants and programs teach mothers how to maximize their dollars at the grocery store and cook balanced meals for their families, and expand access to nutrition programs that ensure that their children are fed at school and when school is out.
What Mother's Day gift could be better than one that honors your mother and helps another mother to safeguard her family from hunger? Make your mom proud by showing that you're helping to bring an end to childhood hunger in America by 2015. Thank you and have a happy Mother's Day!
Sincerely,
Amy Zganjar
Director of Development
PS: If you make your gift by 5pm Eastern on Friday, May 6 , your mother's name will be added to Share Our Strength's Mother's Day Honor Roll on strength.org.
