American Mothers, Inc.® Launches New Georgia Association

American Mothers, Inc.® (AMI), a historic national organization that honors and empowers mothers through service, leadership, and advocacy, is proud to announce the launch of its new Georgia Association under the leadership of Angela Wilkes, president and Teresa Wright-Johnson, vice president, both recent American Mother of the Year® of Georgia honorees.

The newly formed Georgia Association will host its first official event on Saturday, October 18, 2025, beginning with a photo shoot at the Georgia State Capitol, followed by a welcome luncheon featuring National President of American Mothers, Inc., Yolanda Perez from Puerto Rico. The event will celebrate motherhood, community leadership, and the power of women united for a common cause. In addition, the new association is collecting diapers for Helping Mamas nonprofit organization (HelpingMamas.org).

“At American Mothers, Inc.®, we value the incredible contributions mothers are already making in their homes, workplaces, and communities,” said Wilkes. “This new association provides an opportunity for Georgia mothers to come together, share service ideas, and promote the causes that matter most to them, all while being part of a national network of women who believe in the power of maternal energy to make a difference and to make impact.”

Founded in 1935, American Mothers, Inc.® is a non-partisan, charitable organization that serves as a strong voice for mothers in our nation’s capital and at the United Nations, championing the role of mothers in shaping a more compassionate and just society. Through local chapters and national initiatives, AMI recognizes and supports mothers who demonstrate exemplary service, character, and influence in their families and communities.

“Mothers are capable of moving mountains for their families, workplaces and communities,” said Perez. “We are thrilled to see this new association taking root in Georgia and look forward to the powerful work that will grow from the collective strength and spirit of mothers here.”

Interested mothers are invited to attend the October 18 event, meet local and national leaders, and learn more about how to join the Georgia Association of American Mothers. The Georgia Association will meet at Georgia State Capitol located at 206 Washington Street, SW, Atlanta, 30334 at 10:00a.m. for a photo shoot, with a luncheon held afterwards.
