Changing the lives of women and children in honor of Mother’s Day is a powerful and meaningful alternative to buying gifts! Americans spent $16.3 billion on Mother’s Day celebrations in 2011 including flowers, cards and meals. This year, take the opportunity to ensure that Mother’s Day 2012 will have a lasting impact on the lives of women and children in Kibera! Your donation will be matched dollar-for-dollar up to $50,000.

Donate in honor of your mother via Shining Hope’s Global giving page & you can send a personalized tribute card.
