March of Dimes...









Sunday, April 18th you will find me at Centennial Park walking for the March of Dimes. 240 Babies are born premature on an average each week in Tennessee. Tennessee ranks among one of the highest states in terms of preterm births. The March of Dimes donates millions of dollars in research to prevent babies from being born early. I would love for you to join me! Contact me about signing up to walk for the babies.


March of Dimes Mission:

Our mission is to improve the health of babies by preventing birth defects, premature birth, and infant mortality. We carry out this mission through research, community services, education and advocacy to save babies' lives. March of Dimes researchers, volunteers, educators, outreach workers and advocates work together to give all babies a fighting chance against the threats to their health: prematurity, birth defects, low birthweight.
