Honorary Spokesperson and Magic 106.7 Co-Host, Candy O’Terry, comments “A mother’s love is such a powerful thing. For homeless moms, providing a warm, comfortable bed for their child is a dream come true. Thanks to the Coalition’s Mother’s Day Project, we can make that happen. There is no better way to honor your own mother than to take care of another who needs a helping hand.”
