We're getting ready to walk in March for Babies! It promises to be a fun day out with people who share our passion for improving the health of babies. There'll be family teams, company teams and people walking with friends - it's a great feeling knowing we're all helping real families. Join our event and walk with us to raise money for babies right here in our community!

March for Babies brings people together through events across the country and online while raising critical funds to tackle America's maternal and infant health crisis—one person, one community, and one step at a time. More than a yearly walk, March for Babies is a community. Families, friends, and co-workers can connect while raising critical funds for research, education, advocacy, and programs and services so moms and babies get the best possible start. Because together, each step forward leads to a healthy future for us all. March for Babies. Every step counts!

The Owens Family

Shea Owens had a healthy pregnancy until she was hospitalized for a placenta rupture. At 25 weeks, she was placed on bed rest and told to prepare for a possible early delivery. One week and two days later, Shea went into labor, caused by low amniotic fluid. Grayson was born at 2.2lbs an 10 inches long. He stayed in the NICU for 72 days before he was able to go home. Now Grayson is 1 year old and has NO health concerns at all.
