Cardi B Addresses Maternal Health Crisis Black & Brown Mothers Face In The U.S.: Three Times More Like To D!e From Pregnancy Causes
#CardiB is using her platform to spread awareness on the challenges Black and Brown women face in America when giving birth.
In her latest campaign with Bobbie, an organic infant formula and supplements company, Cardi B says, “Black and Brown moms are three times more likely to d!e from pregnancy causes…and if you don’t believe me, you can look it up. Every mother deserves to have a healthy and safe delivery.”
As part of the initiative, fans can dial 732-QQ-CARDI to share their personal experiences, which will be forwarded to lawmakers via #Bobbie for Change, Bobbie’s advocacy organization. Eight participants will receive three months of paid leave, reflecting the Family Act’s proposed benefit of $580 per month, totaling $1,740. Bobbie for Change is also donating a total of $75,000 to Paid Leave for All, BirthFUND and 4Kira4Moms.
