Run For Moms Everywhere

October 22, 2015

You run and walk for health, for mental clarity, or just to get out of the house for some quiet time. You run for a reason. Here’s one more reason to run: every 2 minutes a woman dies due to complications from pregnancy and childbirth. 98% of these maternal deaths are preventable, if only these mothers had the transportation needed to get them to a medical facility.

The gDiapers team runs for the same reasons you do. But we also run for Every Mother Counts, an organization dedicated to raising the funds necessary to provide accessible transportation to effectively reduce the maternal mortality rate around the world. So far the gTeam has run or walked 4,039 miles in support of Every Mother Counts, and we’d love for you to join us.

Jason Graham-Nye, gDiapers co-founder, is running the NYC Marathon to support EMC. Between now and November 1st, you can join us virtually and help support EMC, too, one step at a time.

Register here to run or walk with us, virtually, and let’s take real strides toward diminishing the distance for mothers worldwide.
