We are The Mama Bear Effect the organization, but you are The Mama Bear Effect in action: people learning, talking, and taking action to protect children and change the culture that enables abuse.
How You Can Help End Abuse
As a 100% volunteer supported 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization we work on a very limited budget to provide resources and support for individual advocates and fellow organizations across the country and around the globe. We are here to support those inspired to be part of the change and we are grateful for every donation to help fund our efforts as we continue to offer down-to-earth resources and materials to break down the stigma and support those with the courage to be a voice against this epidemic.
- Share our free downloads, coloring pages, and printed materials with family, friends, pediatricians, schools, daycare centers, and other youth serving organizations to educate staff, parents, and children
- Host a table at a community event to distribute information
- Organize an event in honor of Child Abuse Prevention Month in April – plant a pinwheel garden, ask your local library to put out a display of book on positive parenting, abuse prevention, and body safety education for children
- Organize a fundraiser to help support our work to raise awareness, develop new materials and video
- Participate in a parade or organize a group to rally for greater awareness
