Every day, thousands of babies are born too soon, too small and often very sick. Our team is walking in March for Babies because we want to do something about this. I know you care, too. That's why I'm asking you to join us. It's easy: just click the join this team button. We became involved with the March of Dimes after we lost our son, Jackson David, on January 30, 2014. This devastating news took us by complete surprise because for the first 20 weeks of pregnancy, he was a very healthy little boy. Jackson had developed a fatal neural tube defect, which is one of the birth defects that the March of Dimes is passionate about finding a cure for. The March of Dimes funds lifesaving research and programs that work towards ending not only fatal birth defects like Jackson's but also premature births and infant mortality. If you can't walk with us, please help by donating to our team. You can do so right on this page. Thank you for helping us give all babies a healthy start!
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™ 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!
THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT!
