By 1,943 Comments

Do you have the Mom that has everything?  I mean, you are her child….what more could she ask for, right?!? LOL!  Have you ever thought of sending Mom on a shopping spree?  How fun would it be to give Mom cash and allow her to buy the gift she has been admiring?  It’s easy to send money to 370,000 locations around the globe with Western Union!

westernunionThis Mother’s Day, “Return the Love” your Mom has given you by honoring her on the Western Union website!  A group on Flickr has been created in order for Western Union fans can share those precious photos of Mom.  Each week, Western Union will choose one picture to be featured on their Webpage!  From the press release:

“Western Union’s ‘Return the Love’ campaign reminds us that mom showered us with countless acts of love throughout our lives, and Mother’s Day is the perfect time to return the sentiment by giving her a gift she really wants,” said Stewart A. Stockdale, President, The Americas and EVP, Global Key Accounts and Global Cards, Western Union. “Cash is a practical gift-giving idea, it’s a quick and easy alternative.
