Do you feel that you don’t fit in MySpace or FaceBook? Do you have difficulty finding friends and families that are compatible with you and your spouse? Are you searching for something different?

FamilyIgloo was developed to serve as an informative, safe, fun and synergistic social family network site. With today’s ever increasing hectic lifestyles, getting informed about family related news and connecting with likeminded peers is often a difficult task to accomplish. Time and again couples with young children have limited occasion to socialize outside the family unit, which becomes one of our primary goals. We hope that this site will allow families to get informed about some of the latest family related web articles, enforce long distance ties, get to know their neighborhood, find families with similar outdoor/indoor hobbies, and share photos, videos, and precious moments with selected members. We also hope that families will get to meet each other in a SECURE environment such as family excursions, park barbecues, dining out, birthday parties, hiking out, moms’ night out, fathers’ night out and toys exchange and resale

Its mission is to decrease the stress within families by providing better social support through networking with compatible members.

Some few examples would include:

- Forming social groups and forums to discuss various issues and concerns including the performance of their children’s schools and teachers.

- Families with children with chronic diseases such as cerebral palsy, seizure etc. can form groups to advise each other and share their experiences.

- Families can stay connected with loved ones and hence make their family bonds stronger.

- Families can make new friends online and in their neighborhood by searching interesting and compatible members.
