Mamas for Mamas

Hello Mamas, This precious organization " Mamas for Mamas" is THE BEST ( my opinion). These mamas are supermama, in my opinion. They did help us enormously. Even when I did not have a car, the mamas find a way to come and deliver food, goodies, formulas, diaper, clothes, shoes , bed to our place, making my unexpeced journey easier to navigate. We were hesitant at first, to ask for help, but all theses ladies I reach out to became my friends, not judging, offering help, guidance, wisdom, and if they will not have the answers, they will surch, and guide me where I can get help. They are amazing. We felt we have a guardian angel looking over us, making things better. Without God and these precious ladies, mamas who came along us, we would have not made it. Everyday is an adventure, but it is very important to have someone who I can call, text or message that will not judge me , but instead they will encourage me , chear you on, be on your side., make me feel important, reassuring that I do a good job. They made me feel included and not alone any more. I will be forever thankful to them and what they have contributed to me becoming more confident, smart and a happier mama. Please do not hesitate to contact they. THEY are supermamas. God bless us all ! Sincerely Ana Chis

My husband myself along with our adult son all of whom are long standing business and non profit contributors donated to Mamas for Mamas. The large company the men work for are corporate sponsors yearly and my husband volunteered to be a driver dropping off Xmas gifts. We personally decided to donate a very large amount financially and after discussing with the manager we brought in gift certificates to her. We noticed immediately that no other person there was permitted to talk to us. We offered our time to serve in any way. It was quickly refused. We asked to see more and understand how their gift wrapping which we saw going on (one woman) fit into the bigger picture. We asked how many boxes come through this shop and how will our donation of gift cards be attached to boxes? We were shooed out the door promptly without having any answers. We felt very uneasy and seeing the manager didn’t ask for our contact information we decided to return a few days later hoping to meet someone more responsible who would make time for us. We came and found the same young woman guarding the desk. With a smile we explained again that we were interested in being part of the hands on as well as get a few photos of their operation. With great hesitation she allowed us to enter the ‘operation room’. We were horrified to see one woman in a room full of mayhem. It was like walking into an old thrift shop turned upside down with absolutely no resemblance of a professional organization. We are very disturbed that not only did we as business operators clearly see something seriously off but there was no maturity in the managerial relational interaction. We were treated as though we were a couple of old farts expecting a parade for tossing her a few free hotdogs. Absolutely dishonouring attitude!!! We have never heard from Mamas for Mamas since and no thank you. There are zero photos on any site of the thousands of donations let alone an update or welcome to further participate. We will not donate to this organization again and we strongly recommend large corporations as well as households take their alms to a more worthy cause. We have no confidence our donations ‘all’ reached the needy mamas the organization advertise for. When young managers are established as heads of substantial corporate financial contributions it’s easily seen. How? Just walk in without your business attire and spend a few minutes checking things out as we did, well that is if you can get past the micro managing at the front desk! I’m sad to write this up but entitlement is unacceptable especially when they claim to be representing supporting mothers in need. A lack of morals and ethics in this organization. You just can’t ‘mask’ this one. UPDATE : Thank you for your response below and I look forward to hearing from you as per my email invite sent to you Monday morning January 25, 2021. It will benefit all involved and assist in gaining how crucial and vital it is to tend to communication and follow through in a resolve towards understanding and peace.

If there is a way to give a 1000 stars I would merrily give one. I knew this only 5 months into having my baby and if I knew it earlier I would have re purposed a lot of baby stuff. Better late than never and I was fortunate to be able to afford a lot of new stuff for baby (toys,bottles,pump,swing) etc and donated a lot of these through the facebook post and it was truly appreciated and collected in no time. No judgement and no questionsd asked. Helps reduce landfill and rehome gently used or unopened baby and maternity items.

To say this organization is outstanding is an understatement. Mamas for mamas goes above and beyond to help not only the mamas but kiddos and all umans in general. I have had the pleasure of attending the mamas office one time and I hope to have it again. When you walk in, you're greated with warm welcomes and smiling faces. The karma market is incredible. The clothing, food, and products are outstanding. The biggest thing for me personally that sets this organization aside from the others is when they say something, they don't just deliver, they go above and beyond. Not because they have too... but because they want too. There is no insane requirements. I never felt out of place. I felt like I was at a table where everyone was equal. They make it easy, and welcoming. Thank you Mamas for Mamas for what you've done personally for my family, and for helping soo many others; without making a single one of them feel less than.

Mamas for mamas have helped us for almost 5 years. When I first came to mamas they helped me as I was a single dad with 2 boys in which one boy has a spectrum of autism. We barely survived due to being a low income family. we barely had money for food and clothing. When we met Shannon it was open arms and she said what can we help you out with she gave us food, clothing and some gift cards to help us thank god for that. When it comes to Christmas time I am stressed out as I never had anything as a child so the biggest and best time of the year is Christmas and its hard trying to make my boys Christmas wishes come true being low income. Since Shannon and the beautiful mamas have been in our lives they go out of their way to make their wishes come true. When times are tough you can count on the mamas to pull through . We also received some ice cream gift cards from a beautiful family my kids loved that ice cream it is the best thx more please! Also me being aboriginal I felt welcomed in a racially mixed multi cultural place I felt comfortable it was the most stress free place to be. Please everyone help this organization and just remember if you get a chance PAY IT FORWARD!

These ladies are nothing but the best!!! This was my first Christmas as a single dad and I was not prepared! My son and I were just going to make due... The women up there did everything in their power to make this Christmas the best. The toys for my son, the tree and Santas helpers went far and above!! Darcie was my go to person and I love her for what she accomplished!! This whole team has a soft spot in my heart and I promise, I will pay it forward, with them, next Christmas!! Greatest group ever!! Kevin and Chase???

Mamas for mamas have been an absolute wonderful organization! From the volunteers to the other mamas. Whenever I’ve been in need of anything during a rough time the kindness everyone has shown me is beyond outstanding! Also watching how everyone involved with Mamas for Mamas uplifts and cheers each on is heartwarming! Thank you Mamas for Mamas❤️
