Each quarter we focus our efforts to a new cause that impacts us as parents and children of the world. For the next 12 weeks, we will be providing one education tip each week focused on impacting this quarter's mission: March for Babies. Be on the lookout as we send tips on how you can help your new and unborn infants by eating healthy during pregnancy after your children are born. Please participate in any way possible, even if it's only by leaving positive feedback.
Read on to learn more about this quarter's cause: March for Babies
What is MARCH OF DIMES?
March of Dimes was founded in 1938 by Franklin Roosevelt to conquer polio which, of course, was accomplished through their funding of the research that led to the polio vaccine developed by Jonas Salk. With that major health problem taken care of, March of Dimes now stands for babies – all babies – those that are healthy and those that need our help to survive. Through programs of research (like that done at La Jolla’s own Salk Institute), education, community services and advocacy March of Dimes is there for our babies. One issue close to many in the Stroller Strides family is preconception and inter-conception care and health. March of Dimes is working to discover what moms need to do during these times and make sure moms know what to do.www.marchofdimes.com
What is MARCH FOR BABIES?
It's America's favorite walking event! When you walk, you give hope to the families of babies born too soon or sick. 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 serious problems that threaten our babies. We've been walking since 1970 and have raised an incredible $1.8 billion to benefit all babies. March for Babies takes place in more than 900 communities across the country. You'll be joining 1 million people walking with their families or co-workers. Expect to run into some old friends and make new ones — and keep your eyes open for our celebrity walkers!
Why did we partner with MARCH OF DIMES?
Our mission, “Stroller Strides helps moms make strides in fitness, motherhood and life™” and our mantra of “Moms with a Mission” drive us to serve the communities where we live, work and raise our family. As moms, we are very interested in giving all babies a healthy start in life. That is why we are partnering with March of Dimes on their largest fundraiser, March for Babies, held in most places in late April/early May.
Why participate in MARCH FOR BABIES?
Family Teams are made up of friends and families walking together to celebrate or honor a baby in their lives. And many of our family teams walk in memory of a baby who didn't survive. These special teams remind everyone of the importance of our mission to help all babies be born healthy.
