The technology available to help the babies in the NICU is amazing. Spending so much time in the hospital, around babies that need so much help, has given us a new found appreciation for organizations like March of Dimes. The March of Dimes champions the needs of moms and babies in our community and across the nation. The mission of March of Dimes is to improve the health of babies by preventing birth defects, premature birth, and infant mortality.

That is why we formed a team for the March for Babies walk on April 26th. The support that Olivia is receiving is amazing and by raising money for March of Dimes, I hope we can help to improve the care babies receive in the future. The money we raise through the March for Babies walk will support lifesaving research, services, education and advocacy that help babies get a healthy start.
