Important Update

Our March for Babies celebration is still on, but it looks a little different! We are rapidly preparing for a new, virtualized event that will be fun and engaging for everyone.

Maria Lucinda Weimert

2017 Ambassador Maria Lucinda Weimert Maria was born at 24 weeks gestation, weighing 1 lb. and 9 oz. In her 6.5 month stay in the NICU, she had a combination of growth and development along with setbacks and life threatening illnesses. Maria received surfactant for lung development, along with 27 blood transfusions and several surgeries. After a lengthy stay in the hospital, Maria joined her family at home in late summer of 2011. She is now a healthy 5 year old, enjoying kindergarten. Maria's family has participated in several March of Dimes Walks and are forever grateful for all the families and babies and medical professionals and charitable donors who have paved the way for micro-preemies like Maria to survive and thrive!
