What Moms For Moms Nyc, Inc. does

Moms For Moms NYC, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization founded in 2014 by Danielle Krupa and headquartered in New York City. For more than a decade, the organization supported single mothers across the five NYC boroughs by distributing Newborn Baby Bundles and Postpartum Recovery Kits through a network of 30+ partner agencies including shelters, hospitals, and community organizations, ultimately distributing 7,920 bundles and 1.7 million+ essential items. In 2025, the organization announced a strategic pivot after a large national nonprofit launched a competing statewide postpartum essentials program; Moms for Moms is transitioning out of material-goods distribution (concluding in 2026) to focus on workforce development and vocational training grants for low-income single mothers.

The new core program, the MfM Workforce Development Grant, provides tuition aid and barrier-related cost coverage (exam fees, textbooks, transportation) for single mothers pursuing vocational certifications at approved partner institutions, including Lehman College (Bronx), Hunter College (Manhattan), LaGuardia College (Queens), and the Christine Valmy School of Cosmetology. Certification tracks span EKG Tech, Phlebotomy, Certified Nursing Assistant, Pharmacy Technician, Dental Assistant, Childcare, and beauty/wellness disciplines. The grant structure pays educational institutions directly and incorporates quarterly check-ins plus 6-month post-graduation outcomes reporting.

The organization is funded entirely through donations from individuals, corporations, and foundations (one-time, monthly, honor/legacy gifts), with no equity capital, no parent company, and no institutional investors. Operations are run by a small team (1-10 employees) under a founder-led structure with a five-member Board of Directors. The first workforce development cohort is scheduled for Fall 2026, with applications currently open.

Core offering

Moms for Moms NYC provides tuition and support grants that enable low-income single mothers in New York City to attend vocational and certification programs at approved partner institutions in fields such as EKG Technician, Phlebotomy, Certified Nursing Assistant, Dental Assistant, Pharmacy Technician, Childcare, and Beauty/Wellness.

Product overview

Moms for Moms NYC operates primarily as a workforce development organization offering the MfM Workforce Development Grant as its core product—a program that provides tuition aid and support services to single mothers in NYC pursuing vocational training and job certifications. Historically, the organization distributed Newborn Baby Bundles and Postpartum Recovery Kits (2014–2026), but these product-based programs were discontinued as a national nonprofit launched a similar statewide essentials initiative. The current product portfolio centers on connecting single mothers with partner educational institutions (Lehman College, Hunter College, LaGuardia College, Christine Valmy School of Cosmetology) for certification programs in healthcare, administrative, and technical fields.

Expansion highlights4 records

Broad incumbents

• Goodwill Industries International: Largest U.S. workforce development nonprofit offering job training, placement, and support services across many populations and geographies. Comparable in providing barrier-related support and career pathways, though operating at vastly greater scale and broader mission scope.
• Year Up: Large established workforce development nonprofit providing job training, stipends, and career support for young adults from low-income communities. Comparable in vocational-training and barrier-support model to the new MfM Workforce Development Grant, though serving a broader population beyond single mothers.
• Per Scholas: National nonprofit providing tuition-free IT and tech workforce training to adults from low-income communities. Comparable workforce-development model focused on connecting underrepresented populations to sustainable careers through employer-aligned training programs.

Direct peers

• Baby2Baby: National nonprofit providing diapers, clothing, and basic necessities to children in need. Baby2Baby launched a similar postpartum/newborn essentials initiative in New York in 2025, directly displacing Moms for Moms' legacy program and forcing the pivot to workforce development.
• Dress for Success Worldwide: Global nonprofit focused on the economic advancement of women, providing professional attire, career development, and job training support. Directly comparable to Moms for Moms' workforce development mission targeting low-income women seeking sustainable employment.
• Sanctuary for Families: NYC nonprofit serving survivors of gender-based violence, including mothers and children. Both an existing partner agency and a directly comparable peer providing postpartum and family support services to vulnerable women in NYC.
• Bottomless: Nonprofit that combats infant hunger by providing monthly baby formula and essentials to families in need. Closely comparable to Moms for Moms' legacy baby-bundle distribution model and target population of mothers with infants.
• National Diaper Bank Network: National nonprofit network distributing diapers and baby essentials through member banks, addressing basic needs for low-income families. Comparable in mission (essentials distribution to vulnerable mothers/children) and beneficiary overlap, though operating at much larger scale.
• WIN (Women In Need): NYC nonprofit shelter for homeless women and children, including pregnant and single mothers. WIN is both a comparable peer and an existing partner agency that distributes Moms for Moms baby bundles, making it a directly comparable service provider in the same maternal-housing niche.
• Covenant House: NYC-based nonprofit shelter serving homeless youth and mothers with children. Both a current partner agency distributing Moms for Moms bundles and a directly comparable peer serving the same population of single mothers in shelter settings.
