Amira Edwards was born on August 8, 2023, at just 1lb 11.5oz, 13 weeks premature. She faced an 82-day stay in the NICU, multiple doctor appointments, bradycardia episodes, and various therapeutic interventions (PT, OT, developmental), but today, she’s a thriving, sassy 17-month-old little girl. We want to advocate for a cause greater than our own journey and support the next family who might face a similar challenge to Amira’s.
Our team, Amira's Angels is part of the movement to create positive change for moms and babies everywhere, especially those most at risk.
With preterm birth and maternal death rates continuing to rise, we’re committed to raising funds so that every family gets the best possible start. And you can help us.
Please visit our 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.
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!
