The North Carolina Chapter community grants program is designed to invest in priority projects that further the March of Dimes mission, support national campaign objectives, and further our strategic goal of reducing disparities in birth outcomes.

The North Carolina Chapter Community Grants program provides $295,504 to local communities and statewide initiatives in either grants ($3,000 and over) or smaller community awards (under $3,000).
