ABOUT MARCH FOR BABIES

This year’s March for Babies brings the event back to Geisinger’s campus as we UNITE to walk together in hopes of creating a world where every baby is born healthy. Together we can make a difference by funding research, advocacy and educational programs to give every baby a fighting chance.
Funds raised during March for Babies help to fund the NICU Family Support programs in both the Geisinger Danville and Geisinger Wyoming Valley hospitals. NICU Family Support provides educational and supportive activities to help local families through the NICU journey. 

Take steps today, whether BIG or small, to help make a difference in the lives of families in our community and across the nation.  

Put on your walking shoes, wear some purple, grab your friends and family and join us in celebration on September 22nd for an inspiring day of fun, fitness, and community.
