Thank you to everyone who participated in our March for Babies campaign.
With your help we were able to raise over $6,700 for the March of Dimes and
we do have some donations that are still coming in! We are blown away by your
generosity and support year after year.
The March of Dimes looks to the public to
help achieve a goal that unites all
Americans—healthy babies, healthy mothers
and healthy children. Each dollar donated
helps to reduce the number of premature
births by funding research and programs for
moms and babies. March for Babies makes a
huge difference, and we thank you for being
a big part of it!
