CITRUS HEIGHTS, CA (MPG) - Being a woman is hard, being a mother is even harder, but being a single mom can simply be too much for a person. That is why Single Mom Strong, a nonprofit organization catering to the needs of single moms, was recognized and awarded in September by the ECMC Group.
The grant was one of several awarded to non-profits that together received a total of $275,000 through the GO! Program of the ECMC Foundation. Tara Taylor, the founder of Single Mom Strong, was presented a $25,000 check by employees who nominated her and an ECMC Group board member.
This fall the non-profit is offering preschool and childcare at its new Empowerment Center, in Citrus Heights. Its child care EmpowerME program, says Taylor, “allows families to have an affordable long-term care option with the opportunity to volunteer in the Center in exchange for reduced-cost care for their children.”
Single Mom Strong’s Empowerment Center is located at 7525 Auburn Blvd. Suite 5 - Citrus Heights, CA 95610. For more information call (916)735-5350 or visit singlemomstrong.org
