Story
We believe every moms should have the support needed to grow a thriving family.
Inspired by the beauty and resilience of every mom who has ever chosen to step up and SHINE even when it’s hard, we invite you to shine bright as you bring about change in the world.
“Let your light so shine before others that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.” - Matthew 5:16
The Mom Community, based in Atlanta, GA, was started in 2020 by three moms who have been supporting young moms in the Westside neighborhoods for years. Collectively we have seen a need for more housing for young moms who are transitioning into stability.
The moms in our program are courageous young women who, despite on-going challenges, continue to love and provide for their families.
Last year we served 30 moms and children. This year we served 70 moms and children through crisis coordination, our moms support groups, newborn support packages, mentorship, and housing. To help us meet the growing needs, we hired a House Manager and Director of Programs.

We currently have two rooms that we can rent to moms at a low cost. We are hoping to purchase a bigger building to increase our housing capacity and to be able to offer full programming.
