Hello friends and family,

For eight years, I had the privilege of working as a high-risk labor and delivery nurse at Barnes Jewish Hospital. In that role, I witnessed both the heartbreak of devastating diagnoses and the incredible joy of miraculous outcomes against all odds. Time and time again, I saw the profound impact of organizations like the March of Dimes in supporting families and improving the health of mothers and babies.
 

I truly believe in the diligent work the March of Dimes does to decrease poor pregnancy outcomes and the rate of preterm birth. Their commitment to equitable care for all families deeply resonates with me.
 

My connection to the March of Dimes is also deeply personal. I experienced preterm labor with two of my three pregnancies and battled pre-eclampsia in all of them. When my son Dominic arrived at 34 weeks, the March of Dimes and St. Louis Children's Hospital were invaluable in supporting us during his NICU stay.
 

As a pre-eclampsia survivor and a mother to a child who benefited directly from their support, I know firsthand that the March of Dimes keeps mothers and babies at the very heart of their mission. Their organization is incredibly important to me, not only because of my years as a high-risk OB nurse but also as a mom.
 

That's why I'm participating in the March for Babies. Your donation will make a tangible difference in the lives of countless families, helping to improve outcomes for moms and babies across the United States. Please consider joining me in supporting this vital organization. Every contribution, no matter the size, brings us closer to a healthier future for all. Thank you for your generosity.
