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. This change in format aligns with the newly released CDC guidance for large events, to help ensure the safety and health of our participants. More details on our new format to come soon!
Game On! You’ve been "drafted" for the March for Babies Superhero Bowl. Now is the time to recruit your team and set your goal on your March for Babies page. Teams that score a touchdown (reach their goal) will make it to the Playoffs. But don’t stop there, top teams will have the opportunity to join the March for Babies Superhero Bowl featuring Eli Manning! We suggest a minimum team goal of $1,000. If you’ve already started fundraising and have already met this target, we challenge you to increase your fundraising to help moms and babies by at least 25%. There will be lots of fun along the way!
Don't forget, you can still earn fun March of Dimes fundraising rewards – now through August 15!
Check out our NJ Facebook page for more information, special shout outs, scoreboards and more!
See you at First Down!
