Mother's Day Giving


Ahh, Mother’s Day. A special day for making that perfect plan to show mom what she means to you. While you wait for Center’d to launch and serve all of your planning needs, we thought we’d put an idea out there for those of you still looking for that token of appreciation and those of you who forgot about Mother’s Day until 10 seconds ago when you started reading this post. For you in the latter group, I am a little disappointed, but there is no time for that now. Let’s fix it.

A gift that caught our eye is the Global Giving Mother’s Day Menu. For the mom that prefers to give than to receive, this is a fantastic opportunity to empower her to help some worthy women and family-oriented projects.


The opportunities include education, healthcare, and family support for needy mothers around the world. Even cooler is the fact that she can choose which cause to help through a (biodegradable) gift card. With 500 grassroots projects around the world, including some close to home, this is a great opportunity to give a gift that won’t be exchanged.

(Thanks to the always helpful Cool Mom Picks for the suggestion!)
