Christy Turlington Burns for Every Mother Counts





Want a cute t-shirt and promote a great cause while wearing it? Model and activist Christy Turlington and her husband Ed Burns have found an organization called Every Mother Counts. It's goal is to make pregnancy and childbirth safe throughout the world. Statistics show that 90% of mothers who die during the labor process in third world nations are preventable. That is a scary percentile.  Every Mother Counts recently collaborated with the brand Oiselle and designed a t-shirt (seen above) in which 40% of the proceeds go to the foundation.  Also, check out her directorial debut of the movie that inspired the website titled No Woman No Cry which takes the viewer around the globe to show at-risk pregnancy stories.
