I've heard of March of Dimes for many years and I knew it had something to do with babies. It wasn't until our NICU stay with Emily & Ellery that I realized the mission and goals of this organization. Very quickly I knew that March of Dimes would be very near and dear to our hearts and that I'd do what ever it takes to help.
Andy and I have formed a March for Babies Family Team to help the March of Dimes work toward the day when all babies are born healthy. We are marching in honor of our girls as well as for all the other babies born too soon and plan to make this an annual event. By sharing our story, we hope to remind everyone of the mission of the March of Dimes and inspire our friends and family to join our team. The Portland March for Babies is a 6.2 mile walk on Saturday April 25, 2009. We’d love for you to come out and walk with us. You can either participate as a walker on our team, as a fundraising walker, or you may give a donation if you wish. Won't you please help us in this worthy cause?
We are doing just that by participating in March for Babies as a Family Team. March for Babies offers hope by raising funds for lifesaving research, education and innovative programs that offer hope for preventions and solutions for babies born too soon or with birth defects.
Won’t you join our family at this wonderful event? Email me for more details or click on the link below to register online. Our team name is Singer Twins. If you can’t join us, please consider sponsoring our team with your donation. Just log on to our team web page http://www.marchforbabies.org/teams/586132

You can donate directly from our webpage with a credit/debit card or PayPal. If you prefer, I can also accept cash or check. Just click the appropriate box on my webpage.
One day all babies will be born healthy. But we’ll have to walk to get there!
Thank you!
Andy & Heather
