Please note, in response to the rising number of COVID cases across the U.S., March of Dimes has adopted a COVID safety policy to safeguard the health of every guest, volunteer and family who gather at in-person events. This policy includes vaccine or testing, as well as masking requirements for participation in March of Dimes events.

EVENT DETAILS

Families with a baby born too soon often miss having their baby shower. With your support, March of Dimes and our partners will bring baby showers to them. This November, during Prematurity Awareness Month, we are partnering with 5 local hospitals and celebrating with these families. 


Here's a look at one of our showers in action...

PARTNER TESTIMONIALS

"While in the NICU, parents never get to take a break. They are always worried about their child. The baby shower was a rare opportunity for us to focus on the parents, to shower them with attention, and to celebrate with them their baby's life. We are appreciative and grateful for the support the March of Dimes provides for our babies and their families! We hope to continue hosting these events every year."
- Christine Mikels BSN, RNC-NIC, Assistant Unit Director at Ronald Reagan UCLA NICU

“As a company, we enjoy partnering with March of Dimes because we can see our help make an actual difference for some families. It’s great be involved in the NICU Baby Showers where we can interact with the families and get to know them. I love hearing their individual stories and how much they love their Ergobaby.”
– Priscilla Wan, Executive Assistant & HR Generalist at Ergobaby
