Premature birth affects one in 10 local families, and in honor of all babies—healthy or sick—you are invited to share your baby’s unique story at www.marchofdimes.com/everybaby

Through the site, you can create an online scrapbook page and submit photos to be part of a virtual quilt. The site includes an interactive map, and families can connect to other families locally or across the country. You can also email a link of your page to friends and family and collect online donations for the March of Dimes in honor or in memory of your baby. Funds raised will support the March of Dimes NICU Family Support Program, which provides education and emotional support to parents and siblings of critically ill babies.
