Help me reach my goal! Sponsor Me at March for Babies!







Every day, thousands of babies are born too soon, too small and often very sick. My nephew Riley was born 5 weeks early and although he was healthy and happy in the long run, the experience was stressful and frightening for the whole family. I'm walking in March for Babies because I want to do something about this. And I need your help.

The March of Dimes champions the needs of moms and babies in our community and across the nation. The money we raise for March for Babies will help:

- support all-important research offering preventions and solutions for babies born too soon or with birth defects
- educate women on things they can do to increase their chances of having a healthy baby
- provide comfort and information to families with a newborn in intensive care
- push for newborn screening and health insurance for all pregnant women and children

If you are able, please help by donating today! Even a donation of just $10 can help. Making a secure donation is easy: just click the button on this post.

Thank you for helping me give all babies a healthy start!
