Insperity

Growing up with a single mother who was the foundation of our family, I developed a deep appreciation for the strength and resilience of single parents. More than six years ago, I found Single Mom Strong and connected strongly with its mission, eventually becoming a Board Member and serving on their Male Mentoring team.

Investing in single parents and helping children thrive are important to me, and I am proud to give back to an organization that reminds families they are not alone and removes barriers to their success.

Single Mom Strong’s mission is to empower single mothers and their children through enrichment, encouragement, and educational programs. It takes a village to raise a child, and for single mothers, Single Mom Strong is that village. In Sacramento County, 1 in 4 children under 18 live in single-parent households, families more likely to face depression, chronic stress, substance abuse, and poor overall health. Single Mom Strong works to change that by fostering connection through events like Mom’s Night Out and Men’s Mentoring for children of single moms, increasing economic stability through career coaching and its free Career Clothing Closet, and providing high-quality, affordable childcare through the EmpowerME Preschool & Childcare program, which serves families even on a single income.

By playing in the Capital Cup, Alex is joining a field of local leaders competing not just for a trophy, but for the causes they care about most. Modeled after the Ryder Cup, the tournament pits two teams against each other in a three-day competition, with proceeds benefiting each golfer’s chosen charity. The winning team’s charities split a $100,000 prize fund, and the event has raised more than $20 million for Sacramento-region nonprofits since it began.

Alex is asking for your support to help Single Mom Strong continue investing in single parents and giving their children the chance to thrive.
