Dear Friends and Family,
In memory of my son Baby Brian and in honor of my son, Joey, I am supporting the March of Dimes by participating in the March for Babies on April 25th, 2009 in Roswell, GA. Volunteers like you and me help raise funds that support lifesaving research to prevent premature births and infant mortality. Now in its 34th year, March for Babies gives moms and dads, grandmas and grandpas, family members and friends the opportunity to help the March of Dimes fight prematurity.
Premature birth is the leading cause of newborn death in the first month of life. It's on the rise - up 27% since 1981. And it can happen to any pregnant woman. In nearly half the cases, the causes are unknown. The March of Dimes is leading the way to find answers by supporting research into the causes of premature birth.

You and a friend are invited to a Heritage Makers Workshop/March of Dimes Fundraiser! Last year we raised well over $500. Let's top that this year! Come, enjoy some snacks and learn how to create your very own storybooks, greeting cards/playing cards, calendars, etc. using your very own photos and stories. You will love the new concept of storybooking and what great gifts for Mother's Day and Father's Day! Help us raise money for March of Dimes. Proceeds will go directly to our March of Dimes team with Northside Hospital.
