Ruth supports March for Babies

I joined the movement to create positive change for moms and babies everywhere, especially those most at risk.  Our family experienced a full range of pregnancy and birth stories. We were blessed to have had two healthy pregnancies and babies.  Then, we experienced loss with a 13 week miscarriage.  Our fourth pregnancy gave us our Amazing Grace, who was born and 23 1/2 weeks gestation.  She truly was a miracle, supported by the numerous advances in preterm care as a result of March of Dimes supported research, and the amazing NICU team of miracle workers.  We recognize the miracle of every pregnancy and every birth. 
 
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.

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!
