100 Women: $100 or More Donated in May

Each year, Erie City Moms’ collective-giving community invests in the strength, stability, and futures of Mothers and families.

Our $100+ donation becomes part of a shared investment in Mothers working toward healing, connection, growth, and upward mobility. Together, we help make it possible for Erie City Moms to provide relationship-centered support, meaningful community, mentoring, and practical care for Mother Figures from all walks of life.

This is the power of collective generosity: when women give together, we do more than meet immediate needs. We help create lasting change for children, families, and the Erie community as a whole.

And we send a message to Erie’s Mothering women—”You are not alone. I’m standing right here beside you.”

100 Women help provide free and low-barrier programming and support for Mothers and children, including:

  • Community-centered programs that reduce isolation and increase belonging

  • Mentoring and encouragement for Mothers navigating real-life challenges

  • Opportunities for personal growth, leadership, and upward mobility

  • Free childcare, meals, transportation, and interpretation

  • Expert mental health resources to support maternal well-being at all stages of life

  • A stronger, more compassionate Erie for Mothers and children

Remember Tammy and her kids?

Last year, we shared with you about Tammy and her kids. If you missed it, here’s a recap and an update:

Tammy* and her kids arrived an hour late at Moms Night Out. We didn’t know at the time, but Tammy’s abuser had just kicked in their front door. He left willingly, but Tammy needed comfort and loving guidance—and she came directly to the people she knew would provide that.

Our trauma-informed, relationship-centered volunteers greeted Tammy and her kids with hugs and smiles.

Fed them hot meals.

When her young son became violent in his classroom that night, our early intervention team was equipped to soothe, calm, and co-regulate with him.

Mom cried in the arms of a trusted mentor as she shared her story. . . and we made plans to connect with SafeNet, repair her door, and stock her refrigerator while she took time off to heal.

And that’s just what she did…heal and learn to hope and laugh again.

Tammy now attends Mother Matters Mentoring Circles. Her kids attend with her every month and get amazing benefits from good friends and nutritious meals, to active play and educational STEAM programming with Experience Children’s Museum. They see their Mom consistently growing in confidence, knowing she is safe, loved, capable, and well-positioned to achieve her goals.

Her young son? He is stuck like glue to that same adult who helped him process his big emotions the night of this scary event—and she’s committed to helping him get from panic to peace.

  • Trusted relationships like the one we have with Tammy and her kids take training and time.

  • Healing from hurt, grief, or trauma takes hard work, support, and time.

  • Gaining a new skill, way of thinking, or connection that transforms a family takes opportunity, social capital, and time.

  • And none of this is possible if underserved Moms remain isolated and without community.

Give now to 100 Women for stronger mothers, stronger families,
and a stronger Erie.
