Mothers' Union
Beatrice Odoi's Company Details
Mothers' Union was established in 1876. It is a worldwide Christian movement with over four million members in 83 countries, who put their faith into action in their communities including some of the most impoverished communities in the world to bring hope and build resilience. The ways in which we operate to fulfil that need today are very different to that of the world of the 19th century, but our vision is still of a world where God's love is shown through loving, respectful and flourishing relationships. Mothers' Union is unique. We don't work alongside communities, we work inside communities. Based in countless Anglican parishes, our work is run by local people for local people. Breaking the cycle of dependency we give people the courage to transform their own lives and communities by facilitating change. We aim to show our Christian faith by the transformation of communities worldwide. From small community initiatives to national programmes our aim is to strengthen family life by nurturing relationships that are loving, faithful and respectful. We celebrated our 140th anniversary last year and our mission remains unchanged-our goal is to bring positive change to over one million people a year by 2021. Each member subscribes to the same values; the moral and ethical codes that are central to the ways in which we operate:• We are firmly rooted in a voluntary ethos centred on mutual respect and collaboration; • Our governance, leadership, and programmes are driven by and undertaken through lay members within their own communities worldwide; and• We work with people of all faiths and none.
