Why I March

Our daughter, Emma Kate, was born at 23 weeks and 2 days gestation weighing 1 lb 6 ounces.  She spent 129 days in the NICU. She suffered and endured numerous health issues and thanks to amazing doctors, nurses, and therapists, is now thriving.  Her story would not be possible without her twin brother, Jack, who protected her from any harm and allowed her to develop as long as she could. We love and honor Jack, our Angel in Heaven. 

Emma Kate is a healthy and happy 8 year old who brings insurmountable joy to our life. She is the best big sister to brother, Dominic. We are so proud of our Miracle on Earth. 

Finally, we wholeheartedly believe in the mission of the March of Dimes to provide support to mothers before, during, and after pregnancy, and to ensure infants receive the best possible care. Please come march with us for our Miracle on Earth and Angel in Heaven.

"Happy to support your wonderful family! "

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!
