Overview
Mission
The mission of The Mamas Network is to build and create a vibrant and supportive community so that no mama feels alone in their journey through motherhood.
What it reported doing in 2025
Parent-centric Events - 3rd Space gatherings that are designed around the mother and not their child. This builds community and allows women to find their village while processing and decompressing from parent life.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Earned-program. 71% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
- Distribution model
- Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.
The verdict
SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and a relatively small share of total spending goes to programs.
