I joined the movement to create positive change for moms and babies everywhere, especially those most at risk.
More than 40 years ago, I gave birth to a beautiful premature baby girl who spent two weeks in the hospital fighting for her life. Her upper respiratory system had been compromised during delivery, and as a young mother in New York City, I was profoundly aware of how fortunate I was that she received the specialized care she needed. The cost of her hospital stay—more than $8,000—was fully covered by the March of Dimes. Their support gave my daughter the chance not only to survive, but to thrive.
Today, she is a successful professional working at a prominent law firm in Georgia—living proof of the life-changing impact of accessible neonatal care.
With preterm birth and maternal death rates continuing to rise, I’m committed to raising funds so that every family gets the best possible start. But I need your help.
Please visit my fundraising page to make a donation. Together we’ll be part of a movement to make America a more equitable place and ensure that every mom and baby is healthy.
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!
