"I'll pay you not to have to jump"

I had a great opportunity last weekend to speak to hundreds of people about Support for Mums; some had never heard of us, some were ‘in the industry’ and had either heard of us or had referred to us, and we even had the very great privilege of speaking to a few people who had been supported by Support for Mums.

We also used this opportunity to try to talk people into jumping out of a plane to help raise awareness and funds for Support for Mums so we can continue to provide the much needed services and support we offer.

Although a few people were excited about the prospect of Mother Jumpers (and if you are, you can easily register here  http://motivatingmum.com/events/current-events/details/56-motherjumpers) a there were way more people who said ...

“I’ll pay you not to have to jump!”

I can understand this. I did enjoy my jump last year ... once it was over. Leading up to it, however, it was scary.

So, we’ve made it easy for those of you who would like to donate to Support for Mums, for those of you who haven’t been able to talk any work colleagues or family members into jumping so you can sponsor them, and for those of you who said “I’ll pay not to jump!”

Now you can do both by donating here http://www.mycause.com.au/page/theresnowayimjumping

Proud Sponsors of Mother Jumpers

Alli from Motivating Mum has, once again, been doing an amazing job in organising this year’s Mother Jumpers event in support of Support For Mums.

With twenty  mums, dads and various hangers on from all over Australia signed up to jump on November 30 and December 1 this year it is shaping up to be another fantastic weekend!

This year, we’ve also gained the support of some amazing women – Mums who have taken that enormous leap to start up their own businesses, which is just about as scary as jumping out of a plane.

Huge thanks go to these businesses for their support for both Mother Jumpers and for Support for Mums, it is greatly appreciated.

Last year had 32 mums jump from planes in Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane and Adelaide and raised $38,000 for Support for Mums, which has enabled us to provide much needed practical, physical and emotional support for mums and their families who are experiencing an unexpected and debilitating crisis.

This year, it’s awesome to see some dads on board, too, because they really are an important part of the family.

If you’d like to get on board Mother Jumpers please contact Alli at alli@motivatingmum.com

Let’s see how many more we can get on board and beat last year’s efforts.
