Why I march

This walk is very dear to my heart.  As some of you know, all four of my boys were premature; Zachary at 33 wks; Kyle and William at 36 wks; and, Alexander at 35 wks.  Zachary, William, and Alexander had to spend a minimum of 12 days in the NICU due to problems with their breathing, jaundice, and difficulty maintaining body temp and weight.

As someone who has benefited from March of Dimes, I can tell you they take care of their NICU families.  From helpful information to holiday meals  and much more!

Right now, babies need all the help they can get. Premature birth affects about 380,000 babies here in the United States. I’m walking in March for Babies to get the message out about this terrible problem and you can help. Please make a secure donation to help me reach my goal. Together we can help the March of Dimes fight prematurity so more babies can get the strongest start possible.

"I was also a premie. My mom didn’t know she was having twins and my sister was stillborn bc the cord had wrapped around her neck. I can’t walk on Sundays bc I teach 1st grade at KBC. BTW this is Cajun ⚜️"

WE NEED TO UNITE, CONNECT AND FIGHT FOR FAMILIES

With preterm birth rates continuing to rise, the U.S. remains among the most dangerous developed nations for childbirth, especially for women and babies of color.

At March for Babies: A Mother of a Movement you're lifting up communities, creating connections and taking action to make America a more equitable place and ensure that every mom and baby is healthy.

Together, we’re marching to raise funds and awareness to transform the health of all families!

THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT!
