how we started

Turning pain into passion

Honoring Memories of Our Mothers (M.O.M.s) began as an idea of a one-day event — Honoring M.O.M.s Day — to provide an opportunity for women experiencing grief and/or feeling a void of the loss and absence of their mother. 

Founder, Taronda Gibbons, wanted women in various cities to come together to celebrate and honor the life of their mom. She was inspired to start Honoring M.O.M.s Day after seeing women express their pain on social media every year on Mother’s Day. As a part of her own healing process and the desire to provide support to others trying to move forward after death, this special day was born.
 
The first Honoring M.O.M.s Day was scheduled to take place in Atlanta, GA and Orlando, FL in 2020 but the pandemic changed those plans and the event had to be converted to virtual. Honoring M.O.M.s Day 2021 was hosted in-person in Atlanta, GA. Taronda hopes that in the future, more partners will join to host in cities across the world.
