What Single MOMM does

Single MOMM is a 501(c)(3) faith-based nonprofit organization headquartered in Traverse City, Michigan, that delivers mentorship, courses, camps, and community events to single mothers across Northern Michigan. Founded in 2008, the organization operates through four regional offices covering Grand Traverse, Benzie Leelanau, Holland Zeeland, and Wexford Missaukee counties, with a recently opened headquarters at 1240 E. Eighth Street in Traverse City. Its service offering is built around five self-produced signature programs: Mentorship 360, Acquire Classes, reVIVE Course, INpower Course, and Camp Experiences, supplemented by a Christmas program for beneficiaries.

The organization is supported by a community of more than 500 volunteers and a partnership network of more than 65 churches that provide referral channels, volunteer capacity, and faith-aligned programmatic alignment. Founder Jennifer Finnegan Pool has been externally recognized as a national expert in single-mother support, providing brand authority and convening power with donors and partners. The organization reports serving more than 2,000 families annually, up from roughly 600 families in 2016, indicating triple-digit-percent growth in beneficiary reach over the period.

The business model is a charitable donation model. Funding is sourced primarily from individual donations and an annual fundraiser, Blue Jeans & Pearls, which has been held for at least a decade (2015-2025). For the 2017-2018 fiscal year, the organization reported approximately $242,076 in cash donations plus $50,733 of in-kind gifts, totaling roughly $293,000 of inflow. The organization operates with a lean staff of 1-10 employees, leveraging its volunteer and church networks to deliver most direct services.
