People Assisting Local Moms
A village for local moms.
We make it easier to ask for help — and simple for anyone to pitch in.
Free to ask · Free to give · Run by neighbors
Small acts of kindness.
A little less to carry.

Ways to pitch in
Small things make a big difference. Pick what fits your week.
A warm meal
Drop off dinner on a hard week — new baby, sick kids, or just too much.
Everyday essentials
Diapers, wipes, groceries. The small things that add up fast.
A helping hand
Rides, errands, an hour of company. Neighbors showing up for neighbors.
Give to the village
Donate money
Help PALM support local moms and families. Giving is another way to show up for your neighbors.
Online donations are coming soon.
The heart behind the village
Meet Cierra Samaripa
Mom to one. Dog mom. Founder of Wombmate.
Cierra knows how hard life can get — and how much it takes a village. As a mom to one, a dog mom, and the founder of Wombmate, she understands that caring for a family takes love, energy, and support.
That belief is at the heart of PALM: neighbors showing up for local moms, offering practical help, and reminding each other that no one has to do it all alone.
Motherhood takes a village. Every mom deserves one.
Every mom deserves a village.
Whether you need a hand or have one to give, we'd love to hear from you.
