*The total amount displayed reflects the amount on the team or personal fundraising progress bar. If the progress bar is not displayed on the team or personal page, the team/person
won't be displayed on the leaderboard. Leaderboard totals reflect cash and checks marked "received" on the online sponsor form as well as credit card and PayPal donations. Team
captains can enter as cash and mark "received" any money raised through promotions, such as bake sales and casual days and any sponsorship money paid to the March of Dimes,
on their team's online form. Record all donations on your online sponsor form before you turn in cash and checks to the March of Dimes!

Meet the Grieco Family
Meet the Grieco Family
Steven and Kelly Grieco have three, "million dollar miracle babies". Their first is four year old Vinny who was born at 31 weeks, weighing 3 lbs., 7 oz. Vinny battled feeding issues and was dubbed the “silent spitter” by his NICU (Newborn Intensive Care Unit) staff. Vinny was able to go home after 5 weeks and is now a happy pre-schooler with no signs of his early struggles.
Steven and Kelly’s second and third "million dollar miracle babies" are twins Gabby and Izzy who were born at 25 weeks. Gabby weighed 1 lb., 9 oz. and Izzy weighed 1 lb., 8 oz. at birth. They were in the NICU for 105 and 99 days respectively, for issues such as reflux, feeding challenges, apnea episodes, heart conditions and numerous other problems. Today, Gabby and Izzy are doing well and also have few signs of their early struggles.
