For over 15 years Alexandria City Chapter of Top Ladies Of Distinction/Top Teens of America has participated with the March of Dimes/March for Babies to support efforts relating to improving the health of mothers and babies by walking, fundraising and donating. Mothers and babies are facing an urgent health crisis. You already know that hundreds of thousands of babies are born prematurely each year, and the U.S. has one of the worst rates of maternal death in the developed world. But did you know that Black women have a rate over three times higher than all other women? Did you also know that women of color are up to 50% more likely to give birth prematurely and their children face a 130% higher infant death rate? Moms and babies need our help. Through our fundraising and donations we are making a visible difference in our community now and for generations to come.
Our team is walking in March for Babies because we want to do something about this. We know you care, too. That's why we are asking you to join us. It is easy: just click the "Join This Team" button.
If you can't walk with us, please help by fundraising for our team. If you can't fundraise please help by donating to our team. You can do so right on this page. Just click on the "Donate" button. Thank you for helping us give all babies a healthy start!

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!
