Joey′s Posse is very excited to again be a part of March of Dimes March for Babies. Please support our participation by making a donation.
Joey′s Posse is named for my nephew, Joey. He was born prematurely on September 6, 2005. He was born two-and-a-half months early, weighing just 2lbs 9oz. Today, Joey′s a very healthy and happy 4-year-old thanks to research and education of doctors and nurses provided by the March of Dimes.
Joey′s Posse will be walking 4 miles, starting and ending at Wayne Hills High School, on April 25, 2010. We are participating in March for Babies because we believe in the mission of the March of Dimes. Please support our fundraising efforts by sponsoring us in March for Babies today.
Contributing to our walk online is fast, easy and secure. The money we raise helps save premature and sick babies, and through March for Babies, the March of Dimes is funding important research to find out why premature birth happens and what can be done to prevent it.
Why March for Babies? Because the March of Dimes champions the needs of moms and babies in our community and across the nation. The money we raise for March for Babies will help: support all-important research offering preventions and solutions for babies born too soon or with birth defects; educate women on things they can do to increase their chances of having a healthy baby; provide comfort and information to families with a newborn in intensive care; and push for newborn screening and health insurance for all pregnant women and children.
We′ve joined with millions of compassionate people across the country who support March for Babies each year. Won′t you please help us in this worthy cause? Please sponsor us in the walk that saves babies!
The mission of March of Dimes is to improve the health of babies by preventing birth defects, premature birth, and infant mortality.
