April 15, 2022 My husband and I lost our daughter Kennedy Grace Shivers. She was still born at 38 weeks. Due to complications I suffered kidney failure and was hospitalized for 3 weeks. I was cared for by an incredible team at Cedars Sinai in Los Angeles. But Kevin and I were acutely aware how privileged we were to have access to so many resources.

Black woman are three to four times more likely to die in childbirth.

There is a real need for research and resources for black women. That’s why we asked people to donate to Black Mammas Matter Alliance - a nationwide organization that focuses on research, policy and education. All led by black women.

Thanks to the amazing people we know and love we raised over $150k for this organization in six weeks.

If you want to help us continue to support Black Mammas Matter then you can donate here.
