About CoolMomsCare
Here's A Little More For You...
CoolMomsCare is is the online community for parents and their kids who want to make a difference. We'll help you encourage your kids to change the world around them by helping the environment, other people and themselves.
Being a parent sometime can seem like it leaves no time to do anything else, but changing the world is something a lot of us want to do.
If you have a small amount of time you want to dedicate each day, check out our 5 Minutes of Caring articles. These daily, 99-word suggestions offer practical tips which are topically based to motivate you and your kids to make a positive impact each and every day.
But maybe you have more time. If that's the case, check out All in a Day. These articles are written by parents who are actively making a difference in the world around them. A combination of stories, step-by-step how-to's, and motivational activities you can do as a family, this resource is your chance to put your dream of changing the world into action!
We believe that change happens best face-to-face. Therefore, we want you to get out in the community and show up at local events that make the world a better place. By using our Act Locally calendar, you can find any event that makes the world a better place and is kid-friendly.
And, for those days when everything's stacking up and you just don't have any time at all (we've all been there), quickly visit our One Minute Nibbles to get a positive thought as you scramble to get things done before the sun goes down.
Ultimately, we are parents here to share our ways we believe you can change the world with your family. Please share your experiences, thoughts, stories, feelings, failures, strength, fears, and hopes with us! We are here to help encourage you on this journey towards changing the world.
