Virtual March for Babies StepUp
MOMS AND BABIES NEED YOU NOW MORE THAN EVER
Join the Virtual March for Babies StepUp!
COVID-19 is only compounding the current maternal and infant health crisis facing our nation. While much remains unknown about the virus and its effects on pregnant women, unfortunately, we know from past public health emergencies that pregnant and lactating women are often overlooked as interventions to prevent or treat the disease are developed and distributed. As we face this public health emergency together, it is more important than ever before that we continue to fundraise and rally to fight for the health of all moms and babies. We need your help now more than ever!
Social distancing can't stop us from fighting for healthy moms and babies who need us now more than ever. This year, #MarchForBabies is going virtual - so everyone, anywhere - can Step Up! with us
By joining March for Babies Step Up! you can fundraise in new, exciting ways, including through our new step-counting app.
