As wildfires continue to devastate southern California, a grassroots initiative called Moms Helping Moms has emerged to assist affected families. Founded by Los Angeles mom Lisa Conn, the project began when a friend wanted to send baby clothes to a fire-affected family. Conn quickly mobilized her community online, and within days, she received thousands of offers for assistance. The initiative not only facilitates the direct donation of vital items but also fosters community connections among parents displaced by the disaster, assisting over 200 families so far.
I made a form, and the form started getting shared all over the place in mom groups in Nashville, mom groups in New York, mom groups in Vancouver.
More than just sharing items, Moms Helping Moms is starting to build community between parents, some of whom meet up in person or on video calls to make real-life connections.
