WHO ARE WE?

The Mother magazine is an independent print  and digital publication and has been publishing magazines for almost 13 years.

We publish beautiful images and inspiring content. 

The Mother magazine is a successful publication and after many years in business, we understand how mothers want and need to communicate with each other. 

As a business, we are active social media users and constantly receive requests from readers / followers all over the world asking us to put them in contact with other readers in their local area.

So we had a great idea... 


OUR BIG IDEA

The plan is to build a MOBILE APP that will make it easy and effortless for mothers to find and connect with each other based on their geographic location and common interests.

We need to raise at least £25,000 to build this application, initially in iOS. Any money raised above this target will allow us to launch it in Android and then the other major mobile platforms (helping even MORE mothers to get the support they need!).

Mothers want to CONNECT with like-minded mothers, they need these friendships.

Statistically mothers use social media more than ANY other demographic - including teenagers! (this is such an amazing statistic!!).  

This app will give people a better sense of community and bring people together that have similar interests and live close to each other, it just makes sense.

We need your help with this campaign so we can create this wonderful support network.


IMPACT

We think that this is a really special project.

We know from experience with our readers that it is all too easy for mothers of all ages to feel isolated, and we also know that more mothers every day are using social networks, looking to form those really important mother circles and friendships and get the support that every mother needs. 

Our app will easily allow mothers to CONNECT with other like-minded mothers that live close to them and share their common interests. This idea uses social media in its highest form  - connecting people online and in real life.

We want to create a social and safe place for mothers to meet other mothers online AND in person, creating a nurturing, safe place to meet / get advice or just to make friends!

We think mothers will love using this app...
