Join the Million Mums campaign today and help us say to world leaders that "Mums Matter!" http://www.millionmums.org
Imagine kissing your family goodbye each time you went into labour fearing you might never see them again? Having a baby should be a time for celebration yet in some countries the lifetime risk for a woman of dying in childbirth is as high as 1 in 7.
One women a minute dies in pregnancy and childbirth - and nearly all of these deaths are preventable. The Million Mums campaign aims to unite a million voices, and raise a million pounds for the work of the White Ribbon Alliance, to raise awareness for the women dying needlessly in childbirth. Please go to http://www.millionmums.org and add your voice today.
We know how to fix this problem: the key is making sure every woman has a trained health worker to help her and persuading governments to make this a priority. We need your help to make this a reality. Please pass the message on - ask your friends to join million mums and help us say to the world that 'mums matter'.
