- (1888PressRelease) November 04, 2011 - Momosa Publishing LLC, publisher of the successful Mommy MD Guides book series and website MommyMDGuides.com, and Cord Blood Registry (CBR) today announced the winner of their first Mother of All Ideas Contest.
"Today's mompreneurs have some pretty amazing ideas, and they all want to make a real difference in the lives of other moms. Our goal is to cheer them on and give them a jump start as they work to achieve their dreams, " said nationally recognized health expert Rallie McAllister, MD, MPH, cofounder of Momosa Publishing LLC, and coauthor of The Mommy MD Guide to Pregnancy and Birth and fall 2011's The Mommy MD Guide to Your Baby's First Year. "We are thrilled to recognize and reward the mom entrepreneur our readers selected as the contest's winner," said Momosa Publishing cofounder and Mommy MD Guides' coauthor Jennifer Bright Reich.
The winning idea, The Life of a Single Mom Ministries, a nationwide network of single mom support groups was submitted by Jennifer Maggio, critically-acclaimed author, speaker, and a mom of three.

The organization has already helped launch or grow single mom support groups in churches around the world. Maggio is considered to be one of the nation's leading authorities on single parents' issues. (www.thelifeofasinglemom.com)

This is where we step in with advice, encouragement, and resources.
