March of Dimes Walk

Freya and I will be participating in a March of Dimes WalkAmerica charity event in late April (the 28th--I don't remember off-hand if that's during the time G&J are here, or not). March of Dimes is a great organization that helps in funding the prevention of premature births, getting out healthy pregnancy information to women, and provides a great deal of assistance to families of premature babies.

March of Dimes touched my life while I was pregnant with Freya, because a woman I know who was due at the same time as I was found out that her daughter was affected with a serious genetic disorder. March of Dimes was a huge resource and support to her and her husband as they fought for their little girl's life, and then helped them deal with their grief after her loss.

If you are interested in sponsoring us in the walk, please click here to visit my WalkAmerica home page. Thanks!
Casey
