I’ve been a nurse for almost 33 years with my first 20 years as a pediatric nurse. Working in a pediatric hospital, I saw babies born premature, very small and often very sick. I’m walking to create a positive change for moms and babies everywhere, especially those most at risk. Black women unfortunately have a higher rate of maternal death and risk of having a premature birth. Southern states, including Texas have some of the highest rates of maternal death in the United States. With premature birth and maternal death rates continuing to rise, I’m walking in March for Babies to raise funds so that every family gets the best possible start. And I need your help. Please support my walk. Making a secure donation is easy: just click the 'donate now' button on this page. Thank you for helping me 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!
