For 20 years as a NICU nurse and now a Neonatal Nurse Practitione, I've witnessed countless miracles, many heart breaks, and the sheer will of the tiniest and sickest babies. This year the miracle came closer to home when my family welcomed my nephew at just 26 weeks. Though his course was the typical roller coaster, he is thriving today and is proof that research and innovation and the endless love for these tiny babies and their families proves stronger than the challenges and struggles that preterm birth brings to them.
I joined the movement to create positive change for moms and babies everywhere, especially those most at risk.
With preterm birth and maternal death rates continuing to rise, I’m committed to raising funds so that every family gets the best possible start. But I need your help.
Please visit my fundraising page to make a donation. Together we’ll be part of a movement to make America a more equitable place and ensure that every mom and baby is healthy.
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!
