Mission Statement

At Rising Violet, we believe that stories are powerful. They bring us understanding, strength, and comfort, simply by connecting us to one another. We recognize that the world has been built and shaped by ordinary people whose stories are too often never told. Many of these belong to women and especially mothers. It is our mission to tell their stories! By collecting and sharing mothers’ stories, Rising Violet hopes to encourage mothers to recognize their influence. We will empower the mothers of this world because we know what significant differences they can make. While they might feel they are living quite ordinary lives, the result of their collective efforts is nothing short of extraordinary.

Description

Rising Violet will be a medium where mothers will have the courage to tell their story, no matter how ordinary it feels. We will give them a welcoming space to share their viewpoint and perspective. We hope to expand the narrative of motherhood to encompass the mothers who make up our communities, our nations, and our world.

Because Rising Violet recognizes the power of stories, our mission also includes providing books to those who lack access to great literature. We will collect new and like-new books to donate to homeless and transitional housing across the US.
