Every step counts.
March for Babies is a campaign that connects millions of Americans united to improve the health of moms and babies in your community and across the country.
Together, we can give families the health information and resources they need throughout their pregnancies, and fund groundbreaking research to transform lives. We're also advocating for policies to keep moms and babies healthy and strong.
Because together with March of Dimes, each step forward leads to a healthy future for us all.
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!
