#MomToo
The #MomToo project was created to give the brave mothers of the victims and those still being held in captivity a platform to share their stories. In each video, a different mother shares the horrors her family faced and the excruciating pain she has experienced every minute since.
WE INVITE YOU TO SHARE THESE MOMS’ STORIES WITH FIVE OTHER MOMS.
Together, we will do all we can to be sure no mother ever feels alone in this way again.
