WHITE RIBBON ALLIANCE

The White Ribbon Alliance for Safe Motherhood is at the forefront of providing safe material health care for women around the world.  As we all struggle with managing COVID-19 concerns, pregnant women are facing their own particular concerns.  Some hospitals are forcing women to labor without anyone – spouses, partners or doulas – leaving pregnant women to give birth alone during their most vulnerable time in life.  Then women are induced or given a cesarean in order to “free up beds” faster.  Moms and newborns are separated after birth, and babies are not given the close skin-to-skin contact they need to survive and thrive. Women are also being discouraged from breastfeeding.  We are prepared to respond to these new health issues as they arise and will be at the forefront of improving the quality of care that pregnant women receive during this difficult time.

The White Ribbon Alliance has partnered with Minnetonka Moccasin, Gola, and Andre Assous to enlist celebrity moms to help us spread the word about our critical mission.  www.whiteribbonalliance.org/donate

Minnetonka Moccasin: As a 4th generation family run business, Minnetonka has been making cozy footwear passed along through the generations since 1946. The Cally slipper for mom is our top selling slipper. The baby booties are a hand-painted collaboration with Melissa Stewart of Free Range Mama.

Gola Classics is a British heritage sportswear footwear brand designing shoes for men, women, and children. Taking inspiration from various sporting categories, the brand has been associated with sporting legends from the worlds of football, rugby, tennis, athletics and boxing. The Gola Coaster Velcro is part of the brand’s Vegan collection and has been registered by the Vegan Society to ensure it has the vegan seal of approval and assurance for consumers.

Andre Assous is a women’s contemporary footwear brand founded in the 70s and credited with introducing espadrilles to the US market. The brand has since expanded to include a collection of highly wearable and affordable flat sandals, wedges, heels, and boots designed in New York and produced in a small atelier in Spain.
