Moms Who care was started in 2017 by Cindy Aussieker and Marla
Williams at Lincoln Community High School. The two moms recognized
that once students reach a certain age, community support programs
don't fully realize that these young people have unique needs that
toys and coats cannot fill. The ladies put together a 'pantry'
effort for students that supplies them with personal hygiene items,
school supplies, snacks, and clothing items.

Students are "qualified" to use the pantry through school
personnel's recommendations, such as school nurses, counselors, or
administrators.
Since its inception, Moms Who Care has expanded its mission to serve students of
Lincoln Junior High School, Chester-East Lincoln school, West Lincoln-Broadwell,
and LCHS.
