Moms Association
The Moms Association was formed in 1923 and is believed to be the first Moms Association in the country. Its purpose is promoting the welfare and interest of the university and its students through services and open communication on campus and throughout the state. The association is philanthropic in nature, using its proceeds to support Illinois students. Money raised is used for scholarships and grants for students and Illinois projects through the Association’s 50/50 Scholarship Raffle and sales of the Moms Association merchandise.
