Why does Mommys Light primarily serve children and teens whose mothers are terminally ill or have died?
Mommy’s Light was founded by Mary Murphy, a mother who knew she was dying. Mary knew that her son’s physical needs would be provided for and that he would receive counseling. She was concerned that special traditions they shared would get lost or tucked away in a box. So she asked her son which of their traditions he wanted to make sure would be continued after her death. In that moment, Mommy’s Light was born.
