Day 221: What Would the World Be Like Without MomsHappy Mother’s Day! Today I have decided to share a personal message to all the Mom’s of the world. Please take the time to watch The Jubilee Project video( below my message) “A World Without Mom’s” as it will give back to mom’s in need at childbirth with every view. Have a wonderful Mother’s Day no matter where you are in the world. The world would not be the same with out Mom’s.httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9kHJfMFN1C0 httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3D6s36W1Ngk(Quoted directly from the Jubilee Project site)“The Jubilee Project made this video to honor moms around the world because we were inspired by the love and care we received from our own moms.Moms mean a lot to all of us. Yet, every year 7 million women are injured and 350,000 women die from complications due to childbirth. These deaths, however, are preventable by providing basic maternal health care. For every view that we get on this video, Jubilee Project sponsors will donate a penny to Every Mother Counts, an organization dedicated to improving maternal health in developing countries. Together, let’s help build a world where children won’t have to live without mom’s.”Time Commitment: 3 minutes to watch The Jubilee Project VideoCost: 0 Share Article: Facebook Twitter LinkedIn Pinterest Email 2 Comments Meg on May 9, 2011 at 4:24 am Love this Mother’s Day post! Did you read Nicholas Kristof’s Mother’s Day editorial?You can find it hear http://www.nytimes.com/2010/05/09/opinion/09kristof.html – He talks about maternal mortality“So if one way to mark Mothers’ Day is to buy flowers for that special mom, another is to make this a safer planet for moms in general. And since we men are going to be focused on the flowers, maybe mothers themselves can work on making motherhood less lethal.” jacqueline on May 12, 2011 at 12:25 am Thank Meg. A little behind.
