Help Us Build the Motherful Village
Co-Housing Solutions for Single Mother Families
Building an affordable housing community created by and for single mothers
Housing provides stability, safety, and the foundation families need to thrive. At Motherful, housing is understood as more than a roof. It is a place for rest, connection, and long-term wellbeing.
But the hard truth is, for many mothers—housing is the #1 stressor.
- 34% of single-mother families in Franklin County live below the poverty line
- Single mothers face a 2-3X higher eviction rates than two-parent households
- 60%+ of single mothers are housing cost-burdened, spending over 30% of income on housing
Motherful's newest project, The Motherful Village, reflects a vision for community-centered living rooted in dignity, shared responsibility, and mutual care. This housing initiative is designed to support moms beyond moments of crisis by creating space for consistency, healing, and connection. It recognizes that stability grows when families are surrounded by community and supported over time.
By investing in housing that centers care and belonging, Motherful is working toward solutions that strengthen families and reduce isolation. This vision reflects a commitment to building environments where moms and their children can grow with support around them.
