Why You Are Supporting EMC’s Mission

"Women are initiated into motherhood through childbirth. While it is a most magical experience, it is, ironically, one of the riskiest events in a woman’s life. To ensure the healthiest outcome for both mother and child, women need access to proper care. If I had not had access, it would have been a life-threatening situation for both my firstborn daughter and me. This woke me up to the inherent dangers in childbirth that exist for all women, and I support Every Mother Counts as it provides equitable maternal healthcare globally. I believe being a mother is the ultimate creation story, and my hope is that it is honored equally among all women, across all borders." - Heidi Bassett Blair
