We all know the stats. Black women are more likely to die having a baby in the US. We must end this crisis.
Having a baby is a true blessing however being black woman and pregnant can lead to a death sentence in the United States. It is our pledge to do our part in eliminating the root causes that cut short the lives of Black Women due to poor and bias healthcare options. Funlayo Grace has partnered with Rebecca’s Little Survivors Foundation, EmblemHealth, One Hundred Black Men of New York, New York CIty Black Women’s Political Club and so many others to ensure mothers get to experience the right to live and raise their precious babies.
