WOODBURY, N.Y. - Twenty-five deserving mothers from The City of New York's Administration for Children's Services (NYACS) were among the more than 60 mothers from New York, Cincinnati and Charlotte, North Carolina that were chosen to experience two days of magical mothers day moments courtesy of Delta Funding and its affiliate Fidelity Mortgage Inc.

MOTHER (Mothers On The Health & Educational Rise) Thursday and Friday was created to recognize and celebrate the achievements of women who have faced adversity and overcome life challenges. The first day of events on Thursday, May 5 begins in Cincinnati when more than 20 moms will be pampered with make-overs and a session of gift giving at a local spa. Later Thursday, the ladies will gather at a local restaurant and be treated to lunch from a special MOTHERS menu.

Friday's events will see women from NYACS and Charlotte's Crisis Assistance Ministry travel to restaurants and a spa in their respective cities to take part in make-up training seminars, make-overs, gift baskets filled with beauty products and listen to spiritually uplifting music performed by local musicians. Each of the day's guests will also receive a colorful gift-filled bag and a certificate of acknowledgment from Delta and Fidelity.

The day's events will conclude with another round of gift giving in each city. The New York mothers will receive a one-of-a-kind designer dress, skirt and blouse created by designer-to-the-stars Brenda Brunson-Jackson, while the moms in Charlotte will enjoy a lunch at the Luxurious Park Hotel.

"This event delivers a message of hope to mothers from across the country that have faced many challenges in life. We hope that the mothers who were chosen to join us will cherish their experience and use it as a stepping stone to higher achievements," said Russell Carter National V.P. of Community Affairs for Delta/ Fidelity Mortgage Inc.
