| MOMS Club Principles -That women must be free to choose their personal path to fulfillment -That, for women who choose it, raising children is an important and fulfilling full-time job. -That a family's decision for a mother to stay at home to raise children often involves considerable financial sacrifice. -That there is no one right way to raise children, but that a major reason for the members to get together is to seek out mothers with the same common concerns for raising their children in the best, most healthful way. -That children are the community's greatest resource, and that a community's concern for its children is marked by the quality of its schools. |
| MOMS Club Purposes -To provide a support group for mothers who choose to stay home with their children -To providea forum for topics pertinent to children, child raising, homemaking, personal improvement, and family issues -To engage in activities to enrich the lives of children in the community -To undertake and complete at least one charitable humanitarian or social welfare project related to children each year |
