In an initiative coinciding with Mother's Day, 50 companies are collaborating to promote awareness about the lack of federal paid leave for new mothers in the U.S. This effort involves hosting pop-up events across several cities, providing essential goods and services to thousands of mothers—ranging from formula and clothing to massages and food. The campaign, led by organizations like MomsRising and the Paid Leave for All campaign, aims to highlight the inadequacy of mutual aid solutions and push for necessary policy changes regarding paid family leave to support caregivers after childbirth.
Many brands take advantage of Mother's Day to raise awareness about the lack of federal paid leave in the U.S. through pop-ups and giveaways.
The U.S. is one of the only countries without a federal paid leave policy, contributing to a high rate of new mothers returning to work too early.
Companies like Bugaboo emphasize the benefits of paid leave, sharing positive international examples while also recognizing existing gaps in the U.S. system.
The goal of recent initiatives is to provide immediate support to mothers while advocating for long-term paid leave solutions.
