What is Rent For Moms?

Rent For Moms (R4M) is a grassroots fundraising initiative led by Black women and other marginalized genders that centers the family, redistributes resources and places agency where it belongs – with the Moms. 

Though white and non-Black folks are often eager to give money around the holidays, this campaign moves beyond saviorism. R4M challenges systemic issues that maintain the need for feel-good campaigns like toy drives, all the way back to their sources. By putting cash directly in the hands of Black moms across the country, R4M will help subvert oppressive and predatory economic systems stacked against Black MaGes, and ensure that each family has the agency they deserve & are owed this holiday season.
