A legacy rooted in history

What began as a fight against polio, our driving purpose has evolved to the fight to help all moms and babies. Although our primary objective has changed, our work to ensure every family is healthy and strong has not.

As a network of like-minded leaders helping to improve mom and baby health, the March of Dimes Roosevelt Society enables you to join other leaders at high-profile events and interact with our leadership at a different level—and create your own legacy.

Where it began

With President Franklin D. Roosevelt at the helm, the fight against polio in the US was won—and March of Dimes has since continued working to improve the lives of families across the country. The work we do is possible because of your support, and our shared commitment will solve even the toughest maternal and infant health problems.

Join like-minded leaders to make an impact

Join us, create your legacy, and give every family the best possible start. As a member of Roosevelt Society, you can attend high-profile events and interact with March of Dimes leadership in ways that make an impact.

We fund lifesaving research, education, advocacy, and programs and services, but a gift to our organization does so much more: It enables families like yours to make a profound difference in this country. Roosevelt Society membership requires a commitment of at least $50,000 over a three-year period. Your gift is tax-deductible as a charitable contribution to the fullest extent allowed by law.
