About ProjectWorkingMom

The objective of Project Working Mom: Putting Education to Work is to heighten the awareness and elicit support for single moms to advance their education and, in turn, the quality of life for themselves and their families.

We at eLearners.com have uncovered three major barriers associated with single moms returning to school align with three primary issues—time, money and confidence. We are committed to addressing these issues by raising awareness of the crisis, aggregating support for a solution and serving as a resource for single moms to pursue their educational dreams.

eLearners.com is uniquely positioned to facilitate a solution for this underserved population. Online education, for which eLearners.com has become a reliable and trusted resource, is inherently a solution to help resolve the issue of time. Studying online allows single moms to study at any time and at their own pace. eLearners.com also plays a supportive role by providing guidance, a community and comprehensive tools to help single moms overcome their fears and gain the confidence they need.

Regarding the economic barrier, most single moms need financial aid to go to school part-time; however, the federal government offers limited financial assistance to students enrolled less than full-time. To help fill this void, eLearners.com has compiled a database of over 2.4 million scholarships, valued at $15 billion, in addition to the site’s financial aid resources.

With this in mind, we have launched Project Working Mom: Putting Education to Work and through this project, we hope to become a catalyst for communities to come together to help establish much-needed resources for the single mom population.
