Becoming a mom showed me firsthand how critical support is for moms and babies, especially those most at risk.
My journey became personal when I had my baby, Calixto, at just 34 weeks. I experienced a high-risk emergency C-section and was left with so many questions, fears, and uncertainties. Having him in the NICU for almost a month was incredibly overwhelming—I spent countless hours praying, hoping, and learning how to navigate each day while scared for his health. I was blessed that Calixto grew strong and was eventually able to graduate from the NICU.
With preterm birth and maternal death rates continuing to rise, I’m committed to raising funds so that every family can get the best possible start and support during these critical moments. But I can’t do it alone—I need your help.
Please visit my fundraising page to make a donation. Together, we can be part of a movement to make America a more equitable place and ensure that every mom and baby have the care, support, and resources they need to thrive.
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.
