Meet Pilar & Lola, two university students at Brown and Stanford. They came together and founded Project Matriarchs, an organization working to provide meaningful virtual childcare support to working mothers during the COVID-19 pandemic. As stated on their website: "The way we look at it, the pandemic threatens a reversion to the norm that a 'woman's place is in the home.' Having children and a career should not be mutually exclusive."
Learn about their incredible journey building such a rapidly growing initiative in less than a year. Listen to Pilar and Lola share their experiences interviewing overwhelmed moms and discovering the lack of resources for caregivers. In addition, Pilar and Lola share the amazing network of college students they have cultivated, and hint at an upcoming movement that harnesses the power of university students to change corporate culture and create a more just future.
Reach out to Pilar and Lola via Instagram @projectmatriarchs, and be sure to visit their website: https://www.projectmatriarchs.com/
They are looking to grow the Project Matriarchs community, so be sure to connect with them and join their inspirational initiative!
