WHO

Tansy McNulty | Founder & CEO, 1 Million Madly Motivated Moms

Tansy McNulty is the Founder and CEO of 1 Million Madly Motivated Moms (1M4). 1M4 empowers Black Moms to end police violence by the year 2038 through legislative policy education, financial assistance to impacted families, and encouraging the next generation of Black youth to pursue roles in the justice system & politics with integrity. This type of activism and organizing requires that Black Moms protect their greatest weapon in the fight… their mental health. 1M4 gives Moms a place to air their frustrations with recurring police violence, create solutions that have measurable impact, and prioritize their mental health to maintain peace of mind despite the chaos of inequality. With a background in Corporate Supply Chain Management, emphasis on cost reduction and process improvement initiatives, Tansy is a problem solver who simply wants to save Black lives and create a more equitable justice system.
