Volunteering/Board Positions
We are all mothers.
But we each juggle many things, fill many shoes, and work to fulfill many parts of ourselves. We are whole, unique individuals with full, evolving lives.
We are mothers…and more.We invite you—working moms, stay-at-home moms, and moms anywhere in between—
to check out the opportunities with Montgomery County chapter of Mothers & More.Volunteering for this group gives us a chance to break from our everyday lives, establish friendships with other dynamic women, give a voice to the emotional and practical issues we face as mothers, and explore avenues for self-fulfillment during our active parenting years.
Whether new to the chapter or a veteran, as Board Members (volunteers) we have a unique opportunity to laugh together and commiserate; we share stories, ideas, and dreams; we support one another; and we celebrate us as women!
