Celebrating Michelle Kerr Spry 💙💗

Yesterday marked the official last day of our Director of Programs, Michelle Kerr Spry, at Mothers In Charge. While her role may be changing, her place in the MIC family never will.

For 21 years, Michelle has poured her heart, wisdom, creativity, and purpose into this organization. After the heartbreaking loss of her only brother and oldest son, Blain Spry, she turned her pain into a lifelong commitment to helping others and ending gun violence.

The work of Mothers In Charge would not have been possible without the important work Michelle brought to this organization. From developing holistic programming for grieving families to creating opportunities and support for youth, returning citizens, currently incarcerated individuals, staff, and community leaders, her impact can be felt throughout MIC. As a writer, teacher, grant writer, mentor, and leader, she has brought in millions through her grant writing to support this mission and the people we serve.

And beyond the work, Michelle has always brought her infectious spirit, beautiful smile, and genuine care for everyone around her. She usually hides from the camera, but today, she deserves all the recognition—and then some.

Michelle, thank you for 21 years of love, leadership, and service. You will be missed around the office, but you will always be a part of the MIC family.

We love you. We appreciate you. We celebrate you. 💙💗
