2023 LA County Department Give a Cup of Coffee to a NICU Hero!

Imagine coming home, opening the front door and crossing the threshold with your newborn baby. It’s one of the most wonderful days of your life. But instead of welcoming your baby home, you cross the threshold empty-handed. That’s what the parents of Owen experienced when he was born prematurely at 7 months, only weighing 2 lbs 9 oz. Owen didn’t come home because he was fighting for his life in the NICU. For so many families, their baby doesn’t always go home from the hospital right away or at all…

The March of Dimes is the only organization working on preventative measures to end premature births and birth defects. Our vision is clear. No income level, race or county should determine if a mom or her baby get to survive pregnancy or the first year of their life. That’s why we have invested $6.5 million in innovative research to improve outcomes for moms and babies.

Too many parents come home from the NICU without their baby and with your support we can ensure more parents and NICU staff have the support they need. Whether it be implicit bias training for healthcare workers or simply connecting NICU families with our app to help them navigate the NICU journey, your involvement will make that possible.

Your commitment today will have a ripple effect throughout the nation and for generations to come. Imagine how much positive change you can make by making a donation to the March of Dimes!

Your support will help change the story of Owen, so that families can walk through their front door and bring home their healthy and thriving child.
