This year, March for Babies 2026 will be June 13th. @ 08:30 AM - Location: Roosevelt Park @ Michigan Central 2405 Vernor Hwy , Detroit, MI 48216
Every year since 1995 I have participated in this walk. Over the past 30 years the distance has changed from 12 Miles to 8 Miles to 6 Miles and now 3.2 miles (5k). Everyone is welcomed and encourage to join us again this year.
We walk to support the half a million babies in the U.S. are born prematurely. Premature birth is the leading cause of newborn death and many life long disabilities. The funds we raise in WalkAmerica support research that saves babies' lives. Thank you in advance for your donations-Make checks payable to March of Dimes.
Sincerely, Gwen Burns

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.
