March for Babies

It is March for Babies time again this year and we have been thinking a lot about why we want to walk this year.


Reason #1: Cole and Gavin. Without the March of Dimes and their efforts to improve the health of babies, our MIRACLES would not be with us today.

Reason #2: We walk with March for Babies each year to raise awareness of the lasting effects of prematurity and we walk with the hope of eliminating premature births in the future. Premature babies are 8 times more likely to develop cerebral palsy than full term babies.

On April 25, 2010 the 4 of us will be walking the 5 mile downtown Indianapolis route. We had a great time last year and are looking forward to walking again.

If you would like to donate to our walk please go to http://www.marchforbabies.org/ and type in Julie Johnson under "Find a Walker". We appreciate any amount you are able to donate.
