Why I march

I’ve been a neonatal nurse for close to 45 years. It has been my life’s work and I’m passionate about caring for my tiny patients and their families. But I realized that I can make an even bigger impact in maternal/ infant healthcare across communities through the March of Dimes organization. I’m so proud to give my support to their incredible work. Our team from Evanston Hospital’s Infant Special Care Unit is walking in the Chicago March for Babies because we want to help all families experience a healthy pregnancy and for babies to have a healthy start. Please support our walk. Making a secure donation is easy! Just click the 'donate' button on this page. From all the families and babies that you’re helping, thank you! March for Babies is the nation’s oldest charitable walk, and March of Dimes’ largest fundraiser, with a powerful legacy of helping families. Together, we can help families to have healthy pregnancies and healthy babies!

When it comes to giving families the best possible start, we all have the power to help.

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!
