Between now and Mother’s day (May 9) if you walk into a Starbucks for an
Espresso Macchiato pick-me-up in select stores across US and Canada,
you can also grab a copy of the compilation Every Mother Counts
and help support CARE’s maternal health programs in coffee growing
countries and to help support maternal health relief efforts by Every
Mother Counts. You can also order online here.
Ani reworked the song “Present/Infant”, originally on Red Letter Year,
for this collection, a version you can only find on this compilation.
The project was put together by Christy Turlington Burns in conjunction
with her new documentary No Woman, No Cry
which explores the barriers millions of women face when trying to
access critical care through out their pregnancies across the globe.
Other artists on the album include Toshi Reagon & Bernice Johnson Reagon Martha Wainwright, Rosanne Cash and Sinead O’Connor.
