Experience Erie’s Mom HoCo

Experience Erie’s Mom HoCo

 
Today we boogie over to Erie’s Mom HoCo, a newly started and already beloved annual fundraising event. Its goal is to gather women, celebrate, and give back to the community all at once.
 
This year’s Mom HoCo was a huge success! The theme was 1950’s Greased Lightning. Women (not just moms) came in their fifties attire, ready to enjoy great music, drinks, and small eats. The proceeds go to organizations that benefit Erie schools and the community. This year, $2,250 will be donated to the local nonprofit Erie Uplink.
 
Mom Prom / Mom HoCo came into being when co-planners Jenna Bullard and Megan Humbrecht gathered their friends to go bowling in wedding dresses in 2018. This sparked the idea of a community-wide fundraising event. Then, with the support of the PTCO at Erie Elementary and sponsors Brie Fowler and Kim Clancy, Mom Prom was born!
 
The first Mom Prom was 80s/90s-themed and raised over $3,300; the second was a 1920s-themed event that raised over $5,500, and they’re not stopping! Jenna and Megan have since established a nonprofit called ‘Erie Gives Back’, which looks to host similar events right here in Erie, Colorado.
 
We hope to see you at Mom Prom 2023!
