Founder of the Mother's Grace Foundation, Michelle Fanger, was a corporate executive in the early 2000’s, and was working to make a difference in the lives of mothers when she found herself in need of help after being diagnosed with a severe form of breast cancer. Her struggles had just begun for three weeks after receiving her diagnosis, her son was rushed to the hospital, where he was diagnosed with juvenile diabetes. It was during that time Fanger realized the void and the immediate needs an organization like Mother’s Grace could fulfill.
“As a corporate executive I was trying to add value by helping other mothers in need. I had lost my own mother at young age and felt a need to connect with other mothers and help during those difficult times. Then it all came full-circle with my own diagnosis and my son’s diagnosis. I immediately understood the true need of mothers who are the backbone of their family and what kind of support they need during these life-changing events.”
On Thursday, May 7th from 9:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. Michelle invites you to join her for the Annual Mother’s Grace Brunch, which will benefit the organization so it can continue helping Mothers and children who have endured life tragedies.
Joining Michelle will be Mother’s Grace board member and Arizona’s First Lady, Angela Ducey, “Mother’s Grace is truly a blessing to our community in service of families who have endured life tragedies,” said Ducey. “I have witnessed first-hand how Mother’s Grace stepped in immediately to ease the burden in an otherwise unbearable situation.”
Mother's Grace is committed to healing the world one mother at a time.
“At Mother’s Grace we not only give financial support to those in immediate need while they are trying to deal with the burden of devastating illness or loss, but we also step in and help with monthly bills, medications, anything we can do to support them during their time of need,” said Fanger. “But the giving doesn’t stop there. Mother’s Grace awards 4 to 5 grants per year to Mothers who have transformed their personal tragedy into grace filled action. These grants often help the mother with start-up costs associated with a 501c3.”
