Repeat after us: Paid leave isn’t a vacation. It’s a lifeline. Because here’s the truth: 💼 Only around 1 in 5 of civilian workers in the U.S. workers have access to paid leave. ⚖️ Black, brown, and low-income fathers are the least likely to take it. 📉 Lack of leave impacts everything from maternal health to employee retention. Paid leave saves lives. It keeps families healthy. And it helps businesses thrive. Thank you to our friends at @momsfirstus & @paidleaveforall for fighting the creating space for these important conversations and always fighting the good fight #paidleaveforall #momsfirst #4kira4moms #lovealwayswins

It’s been a journey. When people ask me how I keep moving forward, the answer is simple: this fight is powered by a whole lot of hugs and a whole lot of smiles. So grateful for these two. And so grateful for all of you who continue to walk with us. Of all the things they’ll inherit, they will not inherit this fight. #keepgoing #kirataughtme #4kira4moms #4kira4dads #lovealwayswins

As we bring Black Maternal Health Week to an end, we want to ensure the momentum continues. Far too often the outrage around the maternal health crisis stops at emotional reaction. A repost. A moment of grief. And then... Silence. We’re genuinely here to do more. Ten years ago, Kira Johnson’s preventable death sparked a movement. Today we’re turning that movement into a mission with a number behind it: $1 million. One year. From people like you. $25. $50. $100. It doesn’t take a big check... it takes a village. And the village has always been us. The community. The people. WE are the reason for change time and time again. This is your moment to move from outrage to action. 🔗 Donate via the link in bio. Every single dollar counts. #4Kira4moms #BlackMaternalHealth #BlackMaternalHealthWeek #1MillionForMoms #MaternalMortality

Make every moment count 🫶🏽💫. Kira teaching Charles Mandarin at just nine months old. ❤️ She truly believed that the only limitations on our children are the ones we place on them. Dream big for them. Pour into them. Expose them to everything. And never tell them what they can’t become. #kirataughtme #4kira4moms #lovealwayswins

We’re in the middle of a crisis for no reason. Not because we lack data. Not because we lack resources. The numbers are clear. The inequities are documented. The stories are real. So the question isn’t why is this happening? It’s why aren’t more people outraged…and acting? Outrage alone won’t bring change. We need you to show up, use your voice, and donate/volunteer or share these vital resources. It’s time to wake up and make a difference, America!

Kira’s story became a movement. Her legacy became a promise: to fight for a future where every mother has the opportunity to come home. Your support helps 4Kira4Moms continue advocating for safer maternal care, educating families, supporting those impacted by maternal mortality, and driving lasting change. Honor Kira’s legacy. Stand with mothers. Be part of the change. Give today. Help a mother come home. #4Kira4Moms #KiraJohnson #4Kira4Dads #MaternalMortality #ProtectMothers**

Not on my watch. Period. I’m incredibly grateful to @parents magazine for this feature and for amplifying Kira’s story and the WHY behind our work at 4Kira4Moms. No parent should ever have to have the conversations with their children that I’ve had to have with my boys. That’s why we do this work. And that’s why we won’t stop. #NotOnMyWatch #4Kira4Moms #maternalhealth #4kira4dads #relentless

This movement exists because maternal mortality is personal. Because awareness alone isn’t enough. Because families deserve protection, not promises. Because we shouldn’t be mourning the loss of a mother that was preventable. From Congress to community rooms, from fathers to families, this work shows up where it matters, all thanks to one individual turning his grief into action and advocacy into impact. A small but mighty team was built and operates at the core to keep this moving forward. These are just some of the moments that shaped our mission. And they point us toward what comes next. Here’s to 2026 and shaping the future for mothers and families everywhere. The village is needed now more than ever.

🗣️HAPPY 12th BIRTHDAY TO THE DON OF THE APPLE JUICE CARTEL CHARLES V 🎉🚀💫 I’m So incredibly grateful that God chose us to be your parents. Keep shinning your incredibly bright light for the world to see.

Yellow & sky blue have a name. Her name is Kira. 💛🩵 Our colors came from Kira herself. The yellow is Sunshine personified- the warmth she carried into every room she walked into. The sky blue/teal is angelic, for the angel she became. In 2016, Kira Johnson died from a preventable childbirth complication. She was a mother, a wife, and the brightest light in her family's life. Charles refused to let her story end as a statistic. In 2017, he founded 4Kira4Moms. Every time we wear yellow and blue, we carry her with us. That goes for community events, for the halls of Congress, and for every room where decisions about mothers are made. 84% of maternal deaths are preventable. Since 2021, our Maternal Mortality/Morbidity Response Team has walked alongside more than 100 families facing maternal loss or severe complications. Our goal hasn't changed: zero preventable maternal deaths. When you see yellow and sky blue, you see Kira. Share her story. Join the village. 🔗 Link in bio. #4Kira4Moms #MaternalHealth #BlackMaternalHealth #MaternalMortality #EveryMotherMatters #SayHerName
