Coming Soon...

We are once again gearing up for a successful sale! Coming soon...Vendor contracts! Interest is high, and we expect tables to go quickly. A contract will be available on this site beginning March 5th. Turn yours in ASAP after the contract is published to ensure that you will get your table for this popular sale!

We are soooooooooo excited about our charity this year! Mason-Lake-Oceana Great Start Parent Coalition will receive proceeds from the sale and then use them to help create a baby pantry in each of the counties represented by the coalition. HMF Ltd. is truly comprised of moms helping moms (and their kids!). Join us! If you aren't renting a table, then make sure you attend the sale to support area moms in need.

P.S. Here is the text from the article that ran in The Ludington Daily News after last year's successful sale.

Happiest Mommies and Friends (HMF) and Memorial Medical Center Volunteers raised more than $1,200 for Memorial Medical Center’s new Women’s Imaging Center last Saturday at the area’s first Mom 2 Mom Sale.

More than 400 people attended the five-hour event, held at the Community Church in downtown Ludington. Thirty volunteers, comprised of members of HMF, MMC volunteers, and friends of both groups organized and ran the sale.

Shoppers lined up in the rain before the doors opened at 9 a.m. anticipating 20 tables of gently used baby and kids’ items and maternity wear; a large item area consisting of large toys, baby and kids’ furniture and gear; and a bake sale hosted by Memorial Medical Center volunteers. The large item area sold out in two hours.

Hospital volunteers ran a special table overflowing with donated items from the community. “People were so generous,” said Tara Autrey of Happiest Mommies and Friends, an informal group of local moms and friends sharing a common goal of helping their community. “We received calls through the morning of the sale from people wanting to donate materials. We began to worry whether we’d have enough space, but we didn’t turn anything away till the morning of the sale, when we knew we wouldn’t have any more time to tag and organize.” Mom 2 Mom shoppers purchased clothes, toys, and baby paraphernalia from the hospital table at just 50 cents an item.

“The sale was a win-win situation for a community experiencing tough economic times,” Autrey said. “Families found gently used baby and kids’ items at affordable prices, participating vendors were excited to take home much-needed back-to-school money, and the new Women’s Imaging Center will receive a large chunk of change.”

According to HMF member Laura Mosier, another local agency benefited: “West Shore Pregnancy Care Center got a work-out from our sale!” Most Mom 2 Mom vendors donated their remaining items to the center after doors closed. Representatives from the agency helping new moms in need packed a full-size van and a mini van floor-to-ceiling with boxes and bags of baby and kid-related items, mostly clothing.

Admission to the sale was $1/person; kids 12 and younger were free. Admissions, table and large item rentals, hospital table and and bake sale proceeds will be given to Memorial Medical Center’s Women’s Imaging Center, slated to open this fall.

“Look for us next year,” said Joanne Kalchik, another HMF member. “We want to host one sale a year for a different organization each year. We already have a group in mind for a spring 2010 sale.”
