Help the Global Mom Relay This Month!

Have you heard of the amazing Global Mom Relay program, created by the United Nations Foundation, Johnson & Johnson, BabyCenter, The Huffington Post, and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation?

If not, keep reading!

Launched on International Women’s Day, the Global Mom Relay is a program that allows moms and their friends to come together as part of a groundbreaking series of online conversations to share advice, stories and inspirations about motherhood. Why? To advance a very important cause…

Helping improve the lives of women and children around the globe.

Each day, one amazing woman – think Arianna Huffington and Elizabeth Gore, among many others – uses her social media influence, posting photos and videos demonstrating the power of motherhood and relating to an issue or cause they are committed to. Some even interview a mom who inspires them to be better. Then they “pass the baton” to the next relay participant.

What can you do to help? Share!!! Each time someone shares a relay post on Twitter, Facebook or via email, it unlocks a $5 donation from Johnson & Johnson and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. Proceeds benefit one of the following four innovative efforts that are helping women and children lead happy and healthy lives:

Girl Up

Global Alliance for Clean Cookstoves

Mobile Alliance for Maternal Action (MAMA)

So far, $107,640 has been raised and we’d love to see that number climb even higher! Let’s help keep the relay going!
