Students for Babies

RALLY YOUR SCHOOL

March of Dimes would like to partner with your school to help lead the fight for the health of all moms and babies.

In this country 1 in 10 babies is born prematurely each year. That translates to more than 280,000 babies born prematurely in the U.S. each year-that’s one baby every two seconds.

Undoubtedly, your school and district has been impacted by premature birth. Join March of Dimes and our school fundraising program so that we can engage with your community to support the cause.

We have a variety programs for our youth teams to take advantage of. To learn more about our programs or some of the great organizations that already support March of Dimes click on the appropriate box below.
