"We had more than 75 video interviews and over 330 tweets of people talking about their Super Moms – and the campaign hasn't even ended yet," said Howard Schiffer, President and Founder of Vitamin Angels. "This campaign has been incredible. I've enjoyed watching each submission come in celebrating another outstanding mom. Some of these videos and stories have left me in tears. I've seen this devotion in the field and in my own life; a mom's efforts to ensure her child's health and happiness know no limits. She will literally do everything to make sure that her child has a chance to fulfill their dreams. This is the devotion we want to celebrate this Mother's Day. It's been a joy to share these stories with you and to honor super moms around the world."

All tributes to moms from the My Super Mom campaign submitted via Twitter, Instagram and Facebook can be seen on the Vitamin Angels website.
