Matt Supports March for Babies

I started running as a promise to my son Connor. Connor was born with a congenital heart defect. One night when I was with him in the NICU, I promised him I would keep my heart healthy. 

When we were first admitted into the NICU, the March of Dimes was there to welcome us. They made sure that all the NICU families were fed dinner each night. They were supportive, very caring and helpful. 

With preterm birth and maternal death rates continuing to rise, I’m committed to raising funds so that every family gets the best possible start. But I need your help.

Please visit my fundraising page to make a donation. Together we’ll be part of a movement to make America a more equitable place and ensure that every mom and baby is healthy.

WE NEED TO UNITE, CONNECT AND FIGHT FOR FAMILIES

With preterm birth rates continuing to rise, the U.S. remains among the most dangerous developed nations for childbirth, especially for women and babies of color.

At March for Babies you're lifting up communities, creating connections and taking action to make America a more equitable place and ensure that every mom and baby is healthy.

Together, we’re marching to raise funds and awareness to transform the health of all families!
