Dear supporter,

This weekend many of us are celebrating our mothers across the US. The person we choose to honor on this day of the year isn’t always related to us, because we recognize in our hearts, that motherhood is more than a biological link.

This Sunday, we aim to honor the caregivers who taught us the importance of empathy, the basic tools that push us to take care of others and lay the groundwork for every active bystander.

To celebrate alongside you, we’re listing two actions for you:

1. Donate to Hollaback! Your donation can be a way honor the person you are celebrating. Each donation helps us fund our trainings and our culture-shifting work to end harassment.
2. Invite them to join you at our upcoming public Stand Up Against Street Harassment training next week on May 11th at 3pm. Together, you can learn how to intervene if you witness harassment in public spaces, and how to respond if it happens to you. We’ve created an invitation below that you can send to the person you are celebrating:

Whether you donate in their name, or send them a text with this invitation and register both of you, we hope this mother’s day weekend is special for all of you. If your mother is no longer with us, we hold her in our heart, and welcome you to our workshops if you choose to attend in her honor.

And if you are a mother, we wish you a happy mother’s day!

With Love,

Hollaback!
