Honor Your Mother

A mother's mission and NM Voices for Children's mission are very much the same - providing the things that help children thrive and grow up healthy and happy. This mother's day (Sunday, May 11) we want to give you an opportunity to honor the mother, grandmother, aunt or other special woman who has made a difference in your life. By giving a gift of $50 or more to NM Voices for Children in their name, you'll help us continue our work to improve the health and well-being of all of New Mexico's children. We will send a certificate to your honoree (anywhere in the United States) to let her know a gift was given in her name. We will also post her name and in-memory tributes on our website for the month of May. So please take time this Mother's Day to honor the women who make or made a difference in your life. Click here to make your gift.

Make a Difference in a Child's Life
Have an hour to spare for a child? We're expanding our Wise Men/Wise Women (WMWW) mentorship program into Rio Rancho and Bernalillo public schools, as well as Amy Biehl High School in Albuquerque and need volunteers! Caring adults are matched with kids aged 6 to 14. Mentors can put in as little as 30 to 60 minutes a week for a period of one year. All meetings take place at the school. Read more and download the volunteer application.

Nominations for the Amy Biehl Youth Spirit Awards, to honor New Mexico youths whose service and volunteer work has benefited their communities, are now being accepted. Interactive nomination forms are available online. They are due by 3pm on Aug. 22. Read more
