Dear Friends & Family,
I recently joined the March of Dimes board and started a team supporting the March for Babies mission to help create positive change for moms and babies, especially those most at risk. Mark your calendars to join me Saturday, April 18, 2026.
Right now in the U.S., preterm birth rates and maternal mortality continue to rise. Too many families face preventable complications without the support and care they deserve. I was fortunate to have the support of the NICU teams during both of my delivery complications and thanks to them have two healthy kids. I’m committed to raising funds to support research, advocacy and programs that help every mom and baby get the healthiest possible start like I did. We cannot do it without your support!

Much love,
Dayna, Joe, Leo & Sophia
