The Silver Spring Mocha Moms group, the local chapter of a fantastic national organization for mothers of color (and open to moms of every color), is offering a way to get organized for a good cause: Visit www.ssmochas.lovablelabels.ca, order labels by Saturday May 3rd and a portion of the proceeds will go to support the SS Mocha’s events in the community.

I love being organized and revel in the sense of peace that not mistaking the cumin for cinnamon brings to my household and the morning cinnamon toast. But I know that I do not feel like wasting a $50 printer cartridge to print my spice labels, organize my home office files or spending valuable time standing over my antique Lexmark. I also love the creative way that the kids’ bookbag tags and labels will keep my son’s hoodie or my daughter’s sippy from getting mixed up with their friends’ and classmates’ items. There is also personalized stationery for a price less than Cranes, and when was the last time Cranes gave back to your community and your children?

The SS Mochas are a fabulous group of women and I have massive girl crushes on all of the dynamic, funny, intelligent members. I have been to a few weekly meetings on Wednesdays and am trying to find a way to formally join the group without overextending myself. The chapter’s membership includes mothers that work full-time, part-time, or are entrepreneurs and/or consultants to maintain a balance between work and home. However, the primary mission is “to empower stay-at-home moms to live their best lives as moms, wives, friends and the incredible women they are meant to be.” You want to join too, don’t you?

I urge all readers in need of a little organization to give the SS Mocha Moms’ Lovable Labels fundraiser a click and shop for a good cause.
