Janet supports March for Babies

Our twins were born  16 weeks prematurely just over 13 years ago. Our daughter, Jaina, died after 2 days. Our son, Cade, is an honor roll student in 7th grade, but will forever have to deal with aftereffects of his early medical struggles. He was saved by March of Dimes-funded research, which has helped countless humans (not just babies!). We pay it forward as much as we can every year, raising money for more science and more aid so that other families can be spared the death of a child. 

Thanks for your help, your kind words, for sharing our fundraiser and/or, if you can, making a donation. 💜

When it comes to giving families the best possible start, we all have the power to help.

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!
