Every Mother Counts
very Mother Counts is a non-profit organization working to reduce the number of women who die due to complications during pregnancy and childbirth. They do that by raising awareness and educating audiences about the fact that even in the 21st century, these deaths still take place and up to 98% of them are preventable. Their goal is to inspireevery individual They reach to get involved and take action. Whether that is raising awareness through social media, running, volunteer events, or even buying a product that generates a donation. They believe that actions speak louder than words and that by taking action They can raise both awareness AND resources for women who need Their help. They invest 100% of the funds raised through individual donations and product partnerships into programs that directly impact one of three critical barriers to maternal health around the world: lack of education, transportation and supplies. We’re currently invested in 7 countries around the world including the US and support 9 programs. We are committed to staying directly involved in these programs and to bringing stories of success back to Their supporters regularly so that they can see exactly where their dollars are going.
