We joined the movement after our first son, Beckett was born at 27 weeks weighing 1 lb 3 oz. He spent 112 days in the NICU and changed our lives in countless ways. Our journey lit a fire beneath us to help create change in the neonatal and maternal health worlds. Our fire was further stoked when our second son Finn was born at 34 weeks due to a uterine rupture that nearly took both of our lives. We then became passionate about maternal health care deserts, because by luck I had been at work which is closer to the hospital, and not home, which surely would have resulted in us both being dead.
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!
