I participate to help all moms and families experience the joy of a healthy baby. With 1 in 10 babies in the U.S. born prematurely, we have a lot of work to do. The funds I raise enable March of Dimes to support research, lead programs (like the NICU Family Support program I oversee) and provide education and advocacy that truly makes a difference to families in our community and across the country.
I also particpate because our family knows the heartache of losing a baby. My first nephew, Joseph Martin was stillborn on December 23, 2000. While we only got to hold him in our arms for a few moments, we hold him in our hearts forever.
If you believe, like I do, that every baby deserves the best possible start,please make a donation to support this community effort. Together we can fight for the health of all moms and babies.
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!
