As every mother knows, it takes a lot of energy to parent. Which is why the consumer products company Philips decided to put kinetically powered batteries onto the shoes of 20 awesome moms — harnessing that energy to (get this!) power the neonatal ward at Sardá maternity hospital in Buenos Aires. The ad, “Mom’s Energy” shows mothers’ energy to be literally life-saving and also seriously magical. And you know, a real job with a lot at stake.
Can we ask?
It's important to us to keep the warm, joyfully Jewish community on Kveller accessible for all. Reader donations help us do just that. Can you spare a few to keep Kveller free? (We'll love you forever.)

As one mom in the ad, created for Argentina’s Mother’s Day (celebrated in October!), puts it: “That energy comes from love. Love for my children, for my family and for what I do as well.”
