Expo Mom 2018: Mommy Mundo Inspires Moms with #Mompowerment Campaign

OCTOBER 27, 2022

Mommy Mundo, the pioneering multi-platform community for Filipino moms that’s been advocating healthy pregnancy, breastfeeding, active parenting and mompreneurship since 2003, launches its 2018 plans with a campaign that sheds light on the heart of its mission: #Mompowerment. 

“We have always been about providing information and support to moms in the various stages of their mommy journey, in ways that are inclusive, inspiring and empowering.  This year, we’re very excited to share our #Mompowerment campaign. Why #Mompowerment? Because we believe that empowered moms build empowered families who raise empowered children who in turn, grow up to make a difference and create an empowered nation,” said Janice Crisostomo Villanueva, founder and CEO of the first-ever Filipino mom community, Mommy Mundo. In 1997, she was a newbie mom who started her parenting advocacy borne out of the simple need to have on-hand resource and in 2003, the brand was formalized. 

Recently, Janice was awarded as one of Southeast Asia’s 17 Women Icons for her work in helping moms to realize their immeasurable value and capabilities through Mompreneurship, Momfluence, and Momshare, advocacies that all lead to Mompowerment.  

 

The #Mompowerment Campaign

The #Mompowerment Campaign is all about the power of sharing stories that connect moms to each other, making them feel they belong to something bigger, making them want to do better and be better because authentic, heart-filled stories empower.

Through Expo Mom, #Mompowerment is set to be a 7-month long, multi-platform campaign highlighting the stories of more than 50 moms from Manila as well as from around the Philippines such as Cebu, Davao, Negros, Cagayan de Oro and Baguio, sharing their #mompowerment moments so they can inspire others.  These are stories of success in the everyday pursuit of balance; stories of courage from moms who’ve undergone major trials and struggles in life; stories of moms who have gone beyond their hearth and homes to make a difference for others.  Cumulatively, these are all stories of moms who empower moms whether they are real moms, mompreneurs, influencers, experts, trailblazers or philanthropists. 

The initial set of #Mompowerment moms’ portraits were captured by established

photographer and mom of 3, Sheila Catilo, their stories were captured on video by Jason Magbanua’s Little Big Day team. The public can look forward to these images and stories at Expo Mom’s events, and online on www.MommyMundo.com beginning this May.

Mommy Mundo hopes that through these stories, moms from all over the nation will learn to recognize their own mompowerment and share these stories by coming to Expo Mom, or by sharing their stories online, creating a strong, positive movement of empowered women.
