Support Young Moms in Chicago

In Chicago, as in too many communities around the world, young people of color and young people from distressed neighborhoods are being shut out of opportunity, especially young moms from underserved populations. Young moms are at risk of not finishing their education, nor finding lucrative employment while depending on low income state resources.

MgM Foundation was founded in 2015. Understanding the challenges of being a young mom, having the vision of becoming a known resource in the community when a mom need something is also a global goal.

Marion was a mom at the age of 16 and has not let that stop her from achieving the goals she has and will accomplish. She has been married, has a masters degree, obtained homeownership, three children who are productive people who have college degrees as well. Has worked in corporate America, and owns her own nonprofit. Models and encourages all women to believe in and love themselves. She also has a granddaughter she adores.

Consider making a contribution so we can continue to enhance the lives of young moms by empowering them as they transition to adulthood while navigating motherhood.
