Moms all over Canada are looking for an outlet or a place to meet up with other moms to prove that they are indeed normal.

Walk to End Breast Cancer - Support the CalgaryMoms Team!

On July 28-30, Calgary Moms will have 4 AWESOME members that will be participating in the Walk to End Breast Cancer. Over the course of two days, Julie, Wendy, Tamara & Danielle will be walking 60 KMs around the City of Calgary.

Their Mandate is to raise funds going towards breast cancer awareness, research & treatment for all women affected or that will be affected with this disease.

Did you know that 1 in 9 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer? For example, if I did my math correctly, that means that 111 members on this site will be or have been diagnosed with breast cancer. That number is too high and in most cases, these women will be diagnosed too late.

Our goal is to raise $6000 before the weekend and they are currently at $1800, which means they have a long ways to go! That is why, we need YOUR support! To donate Click Here for more info!

If you are not a Premier Member and wish to donate: The most convenient way to do this is to go online to the website, www.endcancer.ca . Select the Calgary icon, this will bring you to the cancer home page. Then select, Donate . You can find us by typing in our team name Das Boob. Unfortunately, you cant make a donation directly to the team, so you’ll have to pick one of the team members to make your pledge. Thank you for your support.

They have several unique ways to raise the funds. Very cute jewelry.. Pink Ribbon necklaces, key chains, and even a toe ring! They even got Coco Brooks to get in on the fund raising! Want a YUMMY pizza?? Click here!

Over 1000 Calgary moms set trend for Canadian moms

Calgarymoms.com, the website devoted to providing Calgary moms with a supportive place to connect with each other, recently launched five provincial websites for Canadian moms. Now moms and moms-to-be across Canada can experience the same friendship, fun and support that have made Calgarymoms.com so popular. The initial response to the new websites indicates that the provincial websites will be as successful as the Calgary website has been.

Calgarymoms.com went online March 28, 2005. The theme of the website is “Meet a group of marvelous moms at the click of a mouse!”, and moms in Calgary have been logging in to do just that. With over 1000 members, it is the largest online mom community in the city, and still growing. The forum offers moms living in Calgary and area a place to find friendship and online support for their questions about pregnancy, parenting, relationships, and anything else they want to talk about. Calgarymoms.com offers its members events such as playgroups, Mom’s Night Out, slumber parties, family BBQs, seasonal parties, a scrapbook club and many other activities. Britt Raposo, owner of Calgarymoms.com and mom of two busy girls, says, “We have several get-togethers every month… even if it's for a walk or a coffee. Someone is always up to meet.”

The positive response to Calgarymoms.com led Ms. Raposo to open provincial websites for moms living in Alberta, British Columbia, Saskatchewan, Manitoba and Ontario. Ontariomoms.com went online April 12, 2006 and has 72 registered members. Albertamoms.com opened it doors May 10, 2006, and had over 50 members within its first two weeks. Membership is increasing daily. Other provincial websites will be coming online in the near future.

The success of the online mom communities is not a surprise. The forums fill a need for moms who have a hard time getting out and finding friends, for themselves and for their children. Karen Taillon, a member of Calgarymoms.com since March 31, 2005, discovered the online community after moving to Calgary from Ontario. She searched the Internet for a place to meet other moms, and found Calgarymoms.com. Ms. Taillon explains, “We get together for dinners, playdates with our children and have family outings with our spouses and kids. It's like my extended family!”

Moms in Calgary and area can visit www.calgarymoms.com to join the fun and find friendship and support. The provincial websites and updates on the upcoming sites can be found at www.canadianmomsonline.com.
