MOTHERS WHO MAKE A DIFFERENCE 2007 ... Second Annual List

April 26, 2007 NEW YORK — Love Our Children USA announced today the second Annual “Mothers Who Make A Difference List.”

Parenting is one of the most difficult jobs there is. As Mother’s Day nears on Sunday, May 13th, and at a time when violence against children is affecting over 3 million children in the United States, we recognize mothers throughout the country who truly do make a difference.

This year the moms who made the list are all celebrities. They have busy careers and still find time to balance their lives to be loving and nurturing mothers who make a difference!

Ross Ellis, Chief Executive Officer of Love Our Children USA said “we are delighted to honor and celebrate these selfless and caring women who contribute so much to their children, families, society and to various causes.”

Ellis also stated “Their children come first. No matter how busy they are, these women serve as role models for all mothers.” Love Our Children USA not only works to prevent violence against children but, works to educate parents for the way we live today.

Love Our Children USA salutes the Mothers Who Make A Difference in 2007 and wish them a Happy Mother's Day!
