Black mothers are more likely to have a baby born prematurely, Black women die at a rate of three to four times that of white women in this country and Black babies are still more likely twice as likely to die for the first birthday. The Black maternal mortality rates and the infant mortality rate seems to be the worst of any other group in the country.
I’ll be participating in March of Dimes March for Babies! Help me reach my goal! The funds raised will enable March of Dimes to continue advocacy and programming efforts that address the stark disparity of maternal and infant mortality.
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!
THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT!
