About Our Club

Welcome:
Thanks for your interest in MOMS (MOMS Offering Moms Support) Club! Our chapter is very open to new members. In fact, you probably won’t be the only new person. We are growing month to month. Although some of us have lived here for years, some of us are new to the area or new to MOMS Club. We all have one thing in common- MOMS Club introduced us to other moms like us...moms who became our friends!

About our Chapter:
We are a non-profit support group for stay-at-home moms or moms that work part time. Some of our activities include a monthly recipe exchange, park days, smaller playgroups, monthly “field trips/activities” for the kids, and a Moms Night Out (our only non-kid event). We are also involved in community projects to benefit Chandler families and children. (i.e. donations, fundraisers, volunteer work)

Meetings:
All of our meetings and almost all activities are during the day, when at-home mothers need the support. Activities take place at public venues (such as a local park, restaurant, or stores) and others are hosted by members in their homes (such as recipe exchanges and play dates).

Bring your child(ren):
Our only non-child event is our monthly MNO (Moms Night Out). Otherwise, children are expected and encouraged to come! You don’t have to bring your child(ren) to attend an event, but if you do please remember that you are responsible for their safety and behavior. Sometimes, a member volunteer may watch the children (such as at the Monthly Business Meeting), but most of the time we are all together, mothers and children.

Dues:
As part of the International MOMS Club, we do have a membership fee of $25.00. This fee is due each year the same month as the month you join the club. You may attend two public events before deciding to become a member. We understand that being an at-home mom may mean a tight budget for your family. If the dues would be a hardship, please talk to one of your board members.

3rd Annual Cookie Service Project

We had another amazing year delivering over 100 boxes of cookies to the families and staff in the NICU at Banner Children's Hospital. Thanks for all the moms that made/bought 3-5 dozen cookies and to those that helped box them all up at the business meeting. The staff and families loved the goodies and look forward to us doing this service project again next year. Below are pictures from the fun meeting, the delivery, and also a note from one of the staff at the hospital.



Dear Yvonne and the entire MOMS Club of Chandler East,

Wow are your cookies a hit! One mom just said, “it is these little things that get you through the days here (her son has been here 107 days). I am just going to sit here and eat these and cry (she had some good news and was tearful).”

I also just toured a soon to be dad, who’s twins are being delivered this afternoon, who enjoyed the cookies too (he looked a bit guilty when I said they were for mother’s day) :)

Thank you all for remembering us again this year. You have touched many lives today. Cheryl
