The March of Dimes has changed the name of its biggest event to March for Babies. It's a great change because it makes it very clear exactly who I am walking for -- all babies. I am very excited to be a part of the March for Babies; please support my participation.

Although the name of this signature event changed, the mission did not. 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 support lifesaving research, services, education and advocacy that help babies get a healthy start.

I am so excited to get involved with the March of Dimes. It has changed my life by making me more aware of how to keep myself safe for future pregnancy and also I am more informed on how many babies really are affected by prematurity.

This really is a good cause and I would love to get everyone I know involved! Please help me out by donating and sponsoring me for my walk. Thank you all so much! And remember that every dollar counts! :)
