Important Update

Our March for Babies celebration is still on, but it looks a little different! We are rapidly preparing for a new, virtualized event that will be fun and engaging for everyone. This change in format aligns with the newly released CDC guidance for large events, to help ensure the safety and health of our participants. More details on our new format to come soon!

The Henkel Family

In December 2007, our daughter, Sara Grace, was born too early and was born an angel. We began walking in 2008 in her memory. The following December, our second daughter, Sydney, was born at 33 weeks and spent 8 days in the newborn intensive care unit (NICU). At 3 years old, she was diagnosed with SPD (sensory processing disorder) and all of her doctors felt that it was directly related to her prematurity. Today, Sydney is a very happy and healthy 6-year-old who loves princesses, school, and her family. However, our story does not end there. In April of 2012, our third daughter, Peyton, was born. Due to March of Dimes-funded research, I was able to receive a weekly medication to help bring her to FULL-TERM! Peyton completed our family, which also includes our oldest child, our son Jordan, who was also full-term. We work very hard in the hopes that someday, no other family ever goes through what we did!
