IRS990/Desc0Awareness - Around Mother's Day, BraveLove advertised its pro-adoption message in New York, Chicago, Los Angeles and Dallas. With the use of outdoor and digital advertising, 5,681 people signed a digital card wishing birth mothers a happy Mother's Day. These cards were then advertised on billboards across the country gaining over 2 million impressions. Growth continued in 2015 as web traffic, social media engagement and email acquisition increased. Birth mothers responded positively to the campaign. (See Schedule O for continuation)For instance, one birth mother said, "As a social worker, my heart leapt thinking of all of the birth moms that this card will reach that I am unable to. Often birth mothers grieve in isolation and invisibility; BraveLove's Mother's Day card will allow women across the nation to acknowledge the incredibly brave and loving role they have in their children's lives, in a culture that has not historically given space for that. As a birth mom, this project has hit very close to home."

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy2Grp/Desc0Education - Over 400 pregnancy centers in 43 states are equipped with BraveLove's adoption resource kit. These resources include printed materials, three short films of birth mother testimonials as well as an adoption training video for the staff and volunteers of pregnancy centers, health clinics and other maternity service providers. By the end of 2015, BraveLove's partner agency network grew to 9 agencies with locations in 16 states. Referrals and conferences like Care Net's Pregnancy Center National Conference are the main ways in which BraveLove connects with like-minded partner organizations to extend this positive adoption message to their clients. More service providers are equipped to educate clients on the option of adoption because of BraveLove's message and resources.

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy3Grp/Desc0Support - Since BraveLove's network has grown, more birth mothers and families who have been impacted by adoption are inquiring about how to share their story and get involved with the organization. Around Mother's Day, BraveLove hosted a special dinner for birth moms in the Dallas area. Guests came from across the state to attend. Volunteers helped made this event possible by decorating, serving and cleaning up. Based on the positive responses from the evening, BraveLove will make plans to replicate and scale this event to other cities in 2016.
