March of Dimes March for Babies



I just wanted to remind everyone about the great even that the March of Dimes puts on every year.  It's the March of Dimes March for Babies.  The money raised goes toward a great cause!  Here is what the March of Dimes website says about their walk.....

Why We Walk
When you walk in March for Babies, you give hope to the more than half a million babies born too soon each year. The money you raise supports programs in your community that help moms have healthy, full-term pregnancies. And it funds research to find answers to the problems that threaten our babies. We’ve been walking since 1970 and have raised an incredible $2 billion to benefit all babies.

What to Expect
This year, more than 7 million people will join their family, friends and colleagues in 900 communities across the nation. Our volunteers and staff will encourage and support you in your efforts to raise awareness and funds. No matter if this is your first year or your 25th, you can expect the event to be fun, compelling and rewarding.
