Moms and Jobs, Inc. (MoJo) is a for-profit social venture, headquartered in the Boston and SF / Bay Areas, whose objective is to address the issues facing mothers who are poverty-stricken. Understanding the Problem: The economics of single-parent family mean that single mothers are disproportionately represented among the poor. Among U.S. households headed by single mothers, 33% live below the poverty line. Overall, women with dependent children comprise two-thirds of the poor population, a phenomenon referred to as the "feminization of poverty." A major part of the problem is that daycare costs for even one child can consume the majority of a woman’s salary. Creating a Solution: MoJo exists to create sustainable employment opportunities in the apparel manufacturing sector for this underserved demographic, and is utilizing the proceeds from your purchase of a MoJo product to provide better than minimum wage salaries, a chance at a new career path, and more importantly, freedom from the prohibitive daycare costs that keep so many mothers from re-entering the work force and being able to support themselves and the families that need them.
