MOMS - Making our motherhood significant

Among the many changes taking place in the social fabric of Sri Lanka, the growing segment within the female population that needs special care and help is apparent and cannot be ignored. This segment comprises mothers who are raising their children alone and taking up both the roles of both mother and father – ‘Single Mums’.  

Single mums are courageous women who step up by themselves to do the job of two, and face life’s challenges boldly for the sake of their children. They take on multiple roles of being provider, caretaker, nurturer, teacher, protector and above all the ever-present help to their children. While it is easy to pen these multiple roles down all-in-one sentence, fulling these roles in real life requires determination, commitment and selflessness which are evidently attributes of single mums. However, the daunting task of fulfilling multiple responsibilities and making ends meet in today’s challenging environment can sometimes be exhausting and overwhelming. 

That is why we at Umbartha (Beyond Thresholds) would like to join hands with these super women and provide them and their children with the moral and emotional support that they need to “keep on keeping on”. 

‘Making Our Motherhood Significant’ or ‘MOMS’ is an initiative designed to empower, enhance and enrich the lives of single mums and their children and help them to work through a wide range of issues and challenges that they face. 

A series of 6 workshops will be conducted fortnightly by professionally trained facilitators. While the mums attend the workshop on the topic of the day, their kids too will attend a session especially tailored for them on the same topic. What is unique about this program is this two-pronged approach which equips the mums and their children to face their challenges and overcome them together. Times of fellowship and fun activities are woven into the program to ensure a good balance of work and play for both the mums and the children! 

Umbartha invites single mums to register for the MOMS program and start this journey of togetherness with us. See you at the threshold…
