Bath Bomb Business that Redefines "Fundraising" is Launched on International Women's Day
BOSTON, March 20, 2018 /PRNewswire-iReach/ -- Today marks an important day for all mothers, as Mom Bomb has launched in an effort to not only provide a much-needed product ? luxury, organic bath bombs ? but also support a much-overlooked community ? mothers who are working through a challenging situation. By both creating a luxury bath bomb product in clean, modern packaging, and establishing a nonprofit to which $5 of each purchase goes to help mothers in need, Mom Bomb is essentially establishing both a product and a funding mechanism that provides temporary aid and a long-term support system.
Mom Bomb was launched by Owner and "Mother of All Bombs" Heather Roberts in March of 2018, as she was in the midst of fighting her own struggle as a mother. In early 2017, Heather was diagnosed with Hemiplegic Migraines and Trigeminal Neuralgia, a chronic facial pain disorder. The disease disrupted her life to the point where she was no longer able to complete normal daily tasks, like speaking on the phone or cooking for her six children. In order to manage the disease while unable to run her two businesses full-time, Heather began making bath bombs. She found the process itself soothing, and the bath bombs provided the relief she so desperately needed at the end of each day. As she began talking to other friends, family and colleagues during this time, she found that many other mothers were going through similarly trying times, and were having difficulty completing the tasks they were normally expected to do. As such, she decided to create a healing product that could stand on its own, as well as a nonprofit for mothers that said product could support.
Mom Bomb was officially launched on International Women's Day, March 8, and the boxes of Mom Bombs are now available for sale on Amazon for $29.99. Every box contains six bath bombs that are organic and made in the USA with luxurious organic argan oil and essential oils. Within the box, each bath bomb has a different name, related to what a mother might need or have, like "Mother's Intuition: Go with Your Gut" (Lemon-Lavender), "Goddess: Unleash Your Inner Mermaid" (Eucalyptus-Lemongrass-Peppermint), and "Sweet Tooth: Have Your Cake and Eat It Too" (Strawberry Cream).
$5 of each box sold goes to MomBomb.org, a nonprofit that aids mothers going through a difficult time. Anyone is able to nominate a mother who might need a little extra support, and each nomination is carefully reviewed by the MomBomb.org team. After review, MomBomb.org provides awardees with the option to take advantage of one of four services, each of which is worth up to $500: laundry pick up/ drop off, pre-made food delivery, in-home cleaning, or childcare.
"I could not be happier to be able to launch a company in which the primary goal is helping other mothers. When I fell ill, I realized that there was a gap in support services ? many people simply can't qualify for extra help if they happen to fall into a sort of middle ground economically, and it's hard to ask for help. I wanted to create a business that could serve as a resource for those individuals, so that those in need don't have to worry about calling in a favor or paying anyone back," Heather Roberts explains. "So I created Mom Bomb, a business that provides both temporary relief (through the product itself), as well as a support system from which no one is exempt."
