Every year, half a million babies in the U.S. are born prematurely. Premature birth is the leading cause of newborn death and many life long disabilities. The funds we raise in the March for Babies support research that saves babies' lives.

Amanda has dodged too many bullets to count. Born 16 weeks early she survived a collapsed lung, heart surgery, and a bowel obstruction during her 105 day hospitalization. She continues to thrive as her heart defect is closing on its own. She has SURVIVED a CANCER believed to be related to her low birth weight.

We want to help other families experience the miracles that we have. Please join our team and walk with us, or at least sponsor our walk.

Amanda will be joining us on the walk this year, we challenge you to keep up with her!!!

The mission of March of Dimes is to improve the health of babies by preventing birth defects, premature birth, and infant mortality.
