Happy Thanksgiving!
We’re all aware today is a day for giving thanks, and tomorrow and Monday are days for getting deals. But did you know that Tuesday is a day for giving back? Well, you do now. Next Tuesday, Dec. 2, has been designated #GivingTuesday—a day dedicated to celebrating generosity that has also become the world’s largest coordinated charity effort.
At PAI, we’re using the opportunity for a one-day campaign to help save the lives of mothers around the world. Three medicines—each costing less than $1 per dose –could save lives by stopping the two main causes of maternal death: postpartum hemorrhage (uncontrollable bleeding) and eclampsia (dangerously high blood pressure). But too often, these medicines are in short supply or don’t get to the women who need them.
We’re so grateful—today and every day—for our partners, supporters, and champions of family planning and reproductive health. Watch the video above to learn more about #GivingTuesday and what YOU can do to celebrate. Then check out our CrowdRise campaign to help save the lives of women worldwide, and join us Tuesday to get out the give!
