I was born at just 27 weeks, three months early, weighing only two pounds. Because of the medical research and advancements supported by March of Dimes, I was given the chance to grow up and live a long, healthy life.
This cause is deeply personal to me. March of Dimes funds critical research, advocates for maternal and infant health, and supports families facing the challenges of premature birth. Participating in March for Babies is my way of giving back to the mission that helped give me a future.
I’m running the 2026 NYC Marathon to help ensure that every baby born too soon has the same opportunity I did, a strong start and a healthy life. Thank you for supporting this cause and helping make a difference for the tiniest fighters.
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!
