Funds raised at March of Dimes events support our fight for the health of every mom and baby. Today the U.S. remains among the most dangerous developed nations for childbirth, especially for families of color. With the help of supporters and the money they raise, March of Dimes can be there for all families throughout their pregnancy journey so they can have the best possible start today and for generations to come.

Why Participate

Each year thousands of moms and babies deal with complications from pregnancy and preterm birth. With your help, March of Dimes is there for every family—those who had first-hand hardships, those celebrating their health and those just trying to start their families.

How Your Support Makes a Difference

Moms and babies need us more than ever. By raising funds, you’re helping March of Dimes work to end preventable maternal health risks and death, end preterm birth and close the health equity gap for every family.
