Why I walk

Every day, thousands of babies are born too soon, too small and often very sick. The pain can be devastating on families. My husband and I personally suffered the loss of our son James Owens IV in 2004. He was born just shy of 24 weeks. It's a loss that I still feel some almost 20+ years later. I pray to no other families have to feeel this pain alone.

I'm walking in March for Babies because I want to do all that I can to bring awareness to this issue . I need your help. Please support my walk. Making a secure donation is easy: just click the 'donate now' button on this page. Thank you for helping me give all babies a healthy start!


When it comes to giving families the best possible start, we all have the power to help.

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!
