NEW YORK, April 18, 2016 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Today, Every Mother Counts - a non-profit organization that is dedicated to making pregnancy and childbirth safe for every mother, everywhere - unveiled the Orange Rose as a universal symbol for safer motherhood.
To maximize visibility of the Orange Rose, Every Mother Counts is rolling out a multi-platform Mother's Day campaign in partnership with global marketing agency DigitasLBi.
The campaign is designed to spark a national dialogue around the tragic fact that pregnancy can be a death sentence for more than 300,000 women each year, but that change is possible in our lifetime. 98 percent of these deaths are preventable.
Orange is the color of Every Mother Counts. The blooming rose symbolizes a cycle of life, not death. It is a visible sign of nourishment, strength and vitality.
The Orange Rose is a powerful reminder that safer motherhood is possible with improved access to essential care during pregnancy and childbirth.
"I am proud of the impact of Every Mother Counts and the awareness we have already raised about the possibility of safer motherhood," says Christy Turlington Burns, founder, Every Mother Counts. "I see the orange rose symbol and this campaign as a new beginning to the end of preventable deaths for mothers during pregnancy and childbirth. The orange rose is a reminder that the possibility of lasting change is within our reach."
"We are thrilled to stand together with Every Mother Counts this Mother's Day," says Doris Chung, SVP, Group Creative Director, DigitasLBi. "Our hope is that the Orange Rose and accompanying campaign will advance safer pregnancy and childbirth as a human right around the world."
