I joined the movement to create positive change for moms and babies everywhere, especially those most at risk.
TEO'S STORY:
My grandson, Teodoro, was born at 33 weeks and 6 days and spent four weeks in the NICU at Children’s Hospital Milwaukee. During that time, his parents found comfort and connection through education sessions and crafts alongside other NICU families, supported by March of Dimes. From making Valentine’s Day decorations to creating a special keepsake book, March of Dimes was there every step of the way, offering encouragement, community, and care when it mattered most.
The wonderful news is that Teodoro is now home and doing very well. As a family, we will continue to support March of Dimes as he grows, in gratitude for the care and compassion they showed us during such an important time.
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.
Please visit my 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!
