Scarlette Vonne was born 3.5 months early, weighing just 1lb 8.6oz. Before the March of Dimes, our Scarlette would not have had a chance at life. Thanks to their research and treatments, Scarlette is 16 months old and doing wonderfully!

With over 156 days spent in the NICU, we are so very grateful for the work of the March of Dimes and the gift of life it has given us in our daughter.
Every day, thousands of babies are born too soon, too small and often very sick. Our team is walking in March for Babies because we want to do something about this. Our hope is that our story will educate women on the risks of pre-term labor, connect new moms of preemies that need a support system, and raise awareness and financial support for the March of Dimes.
Please consider supporting our walk by registering to walk with us or by donating to our team. Making a secure donation is easy by clicking on the "donate now" button. We appreciate your support and are so grateful for your prayers for our daughter.
(Note: We chose to walk in the Metro Atlanta area b/c it is more easily accessible to everyone than where we currently live. If you are local to the area and would like to walk with our team, please email me at kaylaaimee(at)gmail(dot)com. Thanks!)
The mission of March of Dimes is to improve the health of babies by preventing birth defects, premature birth, and infant mortality.
