Why I walk

Anthony John Jr. and Walter Steven Staraitis were born August 24 2015 at 29 weeks. @ 2 lbs 9 oz and spent 91 days in the NICU/PICU of the Cleveland Clinic.

Emily Josephine Staraitis Born October 17 2016 at 34 weeks and spent 9 days in the NICU for resperatory distress.

100 TOTAL DAYS IN THE NICU COMBINED - March of Dimes was there for my children and all the other children at the Cleveland Clinic.

The March of Dimes programs help support babies and famililies through this difficult times. 

Right now, babies need all the help they can get. Premature birth affects about 380,000 babies here in the United States. I’m walking in March for Babies to get the message out about this terrible problem and you can help. Please make a secure donation to help me reach my goal. Together we can help the March of Dimes fight prematurity so more babies can get the strongest start possible.


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!
