Motherhood is often spoken about in the language of sacrifice, care, and quiet strength. But across India, mothers are also building businesses, protecting the environment, breaking stereotypes, nurturing communities, and driving powerful change in ways both big and small.
This Mother’s Day,The Better India brings together these inspiring journeys through a special microsite —Moms Making India Better.
The series celebrates mothers not just as caregivers, but as changemakers shaping the country around them. From women transforming home kitchens into thriving enterprises to mothers leading climate action, from single moms rebuilding their lives to those opening up important conversations around parenting, breastfeeding, and stigma — these are stories of motherhood in motion.
At a time when conversations around women’s work often overlook the invisible emotional and social labour that mothers carry every day, this space shines a light on the many ways they continue to influence society with resilience, compassion, and courage.
Each story in the series captures a different facet of motherhood — hopeful, complex, ambitious, and deeply human. Together, they form a collective tribute to women who are making India better, often without seeking recognition for it.
Through powerful storytelling, voices from across the country, and stories rooted in impact, Moms Making India Better hopes to spark reflection, gratitude, and inspiration.
Behind many meaningful changes around us, there is often a mother making it happen.
