Want to participate in the Women’s March but can’t make it to DC? Come march with MomsRising at the Women’s March on Raleigh!

We are a proud cosponsor of the Raleigh march and would love to have you march with us.

***MomsRising members will begin gathering at 9:45 am on the sidewalk in front of Jimmy John’s at 437 Fayetteville St so we will be able to march together. We will then head over to City Plaza, the main gathering location. Look for people holding a MomsRising banner. We’ll have signs and stickers to share! Kids are welcome and encouraged.

Here are some useful details about the Raleigh march itself:

  • The March will step off at 10:30 am and the rally begins at 11:30 am at Moore Square Park in Raleigh. There will be organizational tables at the rally, including one from MomsRising-so please stop by!
  • Organizers are encouraging participants to start gathering at 10 am at City Plaza on Fayetteville St. in front of the Marriott located at 500 Fayetteville, St., Raleigh.
  • Incredible speakers are scheduled including Reverend Michelle Laws of the NAACP, MaryBe McMillan of the NC AFL-CIO, and Sarah Preston of Lillian’s List.
  • The event is child-friendly and there will be a sidewalk chalk art activity at the rally geared toward youth.
  • The event is for women and our allies. All are welcome to come, get involved, use their voices, and their vote to promote women’s rights, civil rights, and a true democracy.
  • Organizers are working to have vendors selling hot chocolate and coffee, as well as doughnuts.
  • You can find additional information at https://action.momsrising.org/go/29073?t=2&akid=8654.2082089.XrZozg.
