I joined 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, I’m committed to raising funds so that every family gets the best possible start. But I need your help.
On November 27th, 2024 I walked into the hospital to deliver my son after 40 weeks, what I thought was a routine induction turned into a nightmare. I suffered a uterus rupture and every medical professional there ignored the signs, my son went without oxygen for 40 minutes and ultimately was brain dead. I almost lost my life and the only explanation I would ever get is that everything I was experiencing was normal, they ignored me as a mother and killed my child and almost myself. After five long days with a team of doctors in the NICU, Maverick ultimately was pronounced brain dead, and I had to take my son off life support. I want nothing more than change for all mothers and all babies.

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.
