Greater New Haven
Lighthouse Point Park
 
Each time a baby is born it is truly a miracle. Each and every newborn baby instills a sense of hope and wonder in all of us. The goal of the March of Dimes is to give every baby a healthy start. 

While the name of the event has changed from WalkAmerica to March for Babies, the goal is still the same – to walk for the health of all babies.

In Connecticut, funds raised by March for Babies supports community grants to help pregnant women get access to prenatal care; NICU Family Support to provide information and comfort to families with newborns in intensive care; research to find answers to premature birth and birth defects, and much more.

For general information or to inquire about local sponsorship opportunities, please contact Madeleine Thal at the March of Dimes at 203-849-9800.

Greater New Haven March for Babies is proudly presented by Yale-New Haven Hospital.
