Support Single Working Mothers
Join Marina's Ruby Slipper in Nurturing Health, Education, and Community
Our mission is to uplift single working mothers through a supportive community that provides holistic wellness programs, educational resources, and a network of care that spans physical, mental, and nutritional health.
Why We Do It:
Single working mothers often face the dual challenge of providing for their families while managing their own well-being. Stress and limited time can lead to quick, less nutritious meal choices, affecting both their health and that of their children. By integrating educational programs about food, cooking, and nutrition into school curriculums, we lay a foundation that supports not just children, but their mothers too.
Through the Chicana Farmer’s Edu-Plate Initiative, we introduce urban gardening and nutritional education into schools. This initiative teaches children about the importance of healthy eating, which they bring home, sharing their knowledge and enthusiasm with their families. This not only helps improve their moods and behavior but also encourages them to participate in meal preparation, turning cooking into a bonding activity rather than a chore.
Our goal is to create a ripple effect—from schools to homes—that not only alleviates the daily stress on single working mothers but also fosters a nurturing environment where the entire family thrives. Implementing urban gardens and enhanced food programs in schools supports mothers by ensuring their children are fed nutritious meals and learn the importance of healthy eating habits. This initiative is about healing, creation, and nutrition, addressing the root causes of stress and emotional distress in families.
Marina's Ruby Slipper was founded in honor of Marina, a devoted single mother whose resilience and vision inspired a movement. Our mission is to empower single working mothers by providing comprehensive support across mental health, physical well-being, and nutrition.
We envision a world where every single mother receives the support she needs to thrive. Our programs aim to break the cycle of generational challenges and lay the groundwork for lasting success.
