I joined the movement to create positive change for moms and babies everywhere, especially those most at risk. I was born at just six months, weighing only 2 pounds and 10 ounces, during a time when medicine was not nearly as advanced as it is today. I spent the first three months of my life in an incubator, fighting for every breath, every ounce, every heartbeat. My grandmother used to tell me that I was so tiny, she could hold me in the palm of her hand. That image has stayed with me my entire life.
Because of the care I received, the prayers that surrounded me, and the resilience built into my very first moments, I am here today living, thriving, leading, and giving back. That is why March of Dimes matters to me.
With preterm birth and maternal death rates continuing to rise, I’m committed to raising funds so that every family gets the best possible start. But I need your help.
Please visit my fundraising page to make a donation. Together we’ll be part of a movement to make America a more equitable place and ensure that every mom and baby is healthy.
March of Dimes is dedicated to bringing people together to tackle America's maternal and infant health crisis—one person, one community, and one step at a time. More than a series of walks, March for Babies is an annual tradition that supports moms and babies every day, every step of the way.
March for Babies connects friends, families, and coworkers to improve the health of families nationwide. Together with March of Dimes, each step forward brings us closer to a healthy future for all.
Thank you for your support!
