Prior to my having my daughter I walked and raised money because it was a good cause and also it was a program that my chapter participated in. In 2014, my daughter was born two months early and spent over two months in a neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). During those two months, the George Washington University Hospital NICU team took great care of my daughter and making sure that she gained weight and was healthy to come home in November. I am positive that the neonatal and premature baby medical breakthroughs that were funded by the money raised by the March of Dimes had a direct impact on the capabilities of the NICU team. This is why I now continue to raise money and walk every year and also wear my purple March for Babies shirt everywhere I go :-). If you can, please support my walk. Every little bit counts and it's also tax deductible.
With preterm birth rates continuing to rise, the U.S. remains among the most dangerous developed nations for childbirth, especially for women and babies of color.
At March for Babies: A Mother of a Movement™ you're lifting up communities, creating connections and taking action to make America a more equitable place and ensure that every mom and baby is healthy.
Together, we’re marching to raise funds and awareness to transform the health of all families!
