The All-Female Band The Mrs. Continues Their Mission To Uplift and Empower Women Everywhere With The Words of Wisdom “#YouToldMe Mother’s Day” Contest! One Lucky Participant Will Win $50,000!
We’ve partnered with The Mrs. to share awesome information about the “The Mrs. $50K Cash #YouToldMe Mother’s Day Contest!”
Hot on the heels of the release of their latest single “You Told Me,” which debuted at a New York City Mother’s Day gala celebration benefitting Dress for Success and hosted by Jenny McCarthy, the all-female rock band The Mrs. continues to honor moms everywhere. The Mrs. is launching the #YouToldMe Mother’s Day Contest to give participants across the U.S. a chance to win $50,000 for sharing their mother’s life lessons and words of wisdom. One lucky winner will be selected on Mother’s Day, May 10, 2015.
Recently, The Mrs. commissioned a survey of 5,000 mothers, and found that nearly 95% of them feel inadequate – and 90% agree that feeling like they’re not “enough” is a universal pattern among mothers. The Mrs. is on a mission to help change that! The band hopes to continue to draw attention to the incredible work moms do in caring for their families every day by having entrants write about their mother’s words of wisdom. The Mrs. #YouToldMe Mother’s Day contest is designed to draw attention to the value of all the little things moms do and say every single day.
“We all have worries, fears, and times when we feel we are not enough,” said The Mrs. founder and drummer, Andra Liemandt. “We want to empower women to believe they are enough just as they are.”
As part of their growing female empowerment movement and to help support the financial security of women, The Mrs. is aligning with Rising Tide Capital, a non-profit organization that will provide financial advisement to the contest recipient.

My thoughts about my mother…
I am very fortunate that my mother is still living and I will actually be flying 2000 miles this year to spend Mother’s Day with her. My mom is not a woman who shares her knowledge through words but is more one who does through her actions. My father died unexpectedly when my mother was pregnant with me and had three other children under the age of 5. My mother handled that very trying period in her life with amazing strength and grace and did what she needed to do to make sure her children were taken care of, happy, and healthy. She is a strong woman who always was up to the task and had an amazing ability to rise to the occasion whenever things did not necessarily go the way she had intended them to. She looks for the “gift” in each situation. Through her actions, I learned that it is possible to handle adversity with strength and grace and look for the positives in each situation.
Who Is The Mrs.?
The Mrs. became known across the country for their powerful message of self-acceptance. Their first single “Enough” inspired the #ImEnough movement that is resonating with women from all walks of life, empowering them to love themselves just as they are. To bring this message to life, they created a talking “magic mirror” and have been successfully convincing women everywhere that they are, indeed, Enough! For more information, visit www.themrs.com. The Mrs. “You Told Me” song is available on iTunes; video is available on The Mrs. YouTube Channel. Stay connected with The Mrs. after the contest is over by following them on Facebook and Twitter.

This is a great promotion for Mother’s Day. I think anything that celebrates and rewards mothers is a good thing.
This is awesome! See, a mother’s words of wisdom are so valuable, they can now be worth $50K! Love this!
What a great initiative and contest! I love the idea behind and purpose for this …. women definitely need a boost because being a mother is definitely sometimes the hardest role ever and plenty of days can make a mama feel inadequate or like a failure. We definitely need to be more supportive of one another and gentler in our debates about motherhood.
I love a good Mothers Day contest. I better put the pressure on my mom for some words of wisdom asap! lol I love the idea behind this though, very cute.
This is a wonderful Mother’s Day contest. My Mom has given me so much good advice – I am checking out how to enter.
I love this great contest! That’s awesome you’ll get to spend Mother’s Day with your mom!
I think the outcome of this survey is sad but so true. I feel the same way.
Thats a cool promotion. Really a fun idea.
This is a great contest. My mom passed away in 2001… I wish I had more time with her to gain more knowledge!
I love Mother’s Day and am looking forward to having kids old enough to understand it. Until then the 50k will have to be enough 😉
The contest is amazing. The foundation of the band, even more so. Women should know they’re enough. That’s something I always want my daughter to feel.
Anything that celebrates mom is a good thing in my book! What a fun giveaway, how fun it would be to win!
It makes me so sad to hear that 90% of moms feel inadequate especially since I know so many amazing moms.
You should never under appreciate your mother. Mother’s Day is a special day for them, but they should be considered special each and every day of the year!
I have never even heard of The Mrs or the song Enough, I will look for it tonight on Spotify and have a listen! Thanks for sharing, I will head over the contest page and throw my hat in the mix! Fingers crossed! 🙂
Your mother does sound like a very strong woman. I don’t live close to my mom, so I don’t get to see her but about every 5-6 Mother’s Days. 🙁 I will not be seeing her this one, but we will talk for hours on the phone that day. I’ve never heard of The Mrs. until this week and going to check them out now. Sounds like an awesome giveaway, too!
i have not heard of this band before. Now I will be listening to them, considering their mission statement and what they believe in. Thanks for sharing!
