From Idea to Impact. Now on Main Stage.
Pitch Night is stepping into the spotlight at MOMCON, showcasing bold ideas from MomCo moms and inspiring a new generation to step out in faith, lead with courage, and reach more moms.
This year, MomCo is giving away …
MomCo moms are invited to submit a proposal for funding that brings hope to moms in their communities or online. If you have an idea that could change the story for women where you live, this is your moment to step forward.
This year, dozens of bold and innovative projects will receive grants ranging from $2,000 to $10,000 to turn vision into action and bring practical resources and the love of Jesus to women who need it most. And this year, six of those projects will be shared from MOMCON Main Stage on Saturday morning.
At a time when so many moms are searching for connection, purpose and hope, MomCo is investing in leaders who are ready to build it.
What We're Looking For ...
- Address Practical Needs: Enhance the lives of moms and children through tangible support.
- Ignite Evangelism: Share the message of Jesus in an engaging and compelling manner.
- Foster Diverse Gatherings: Bring moms from various backgrounds who might not typically connect to your MomCo group.
- Create Social Media Virality: Produce shareable moments to show impact and spread hope.
