This is the 13th year in a row. Friends of King Donovan are joining together to tackle premature birth. As many know, Donovan was born at 24 weeks at 1lb. and 7oz with many medical complications. Donovan stayed in the NICU for three months before we brought him home. He has been such a blessing in our lives, and we are so thankful for all the excellent care we received while Donovan was in the NICU. Forming a Family Team and raising money for March of Dimes research and community programs at March for Babies is a great way to turn one of the hardest things our family had to endure into a positive. Please join our team or consider donating to honor King Donovan: We aim to raise $10,000. $10,000 could provide several hundreds of families of babies in newborn intensive with information and support to ease their fears and uncertainty. The money we raise for March for Babies will help: ...support all-important research offering preventions and solutions for babies born too soon or with birth defects ...educate women on things they can do to increase their chances of having a healthy baby ...provide comfort and information to families with a newborn in intensive care ...push for newborn screening and health insurance for all pregnant women and children. Please help our team help babies— click JOIN THIS TEAM at the top of the page and get started! The mission of March of Dimes is to improve the health of babies by preventing congenital disabilities, premature birth, 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: A Mother of a Movement™ 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!
