Each year, March of Dimes Louisiana Chapters awards grants to external organizations across the state in order to address unmet maternal and infant health needs. These community grants are one way that the March of Dimes pursues its mission of saving babies by preventing birth defects, premature birth, and infant mortality.
 
About the Chapter Community Grants Program
The chapter community grants program is designed to invest in priority projects that further the March of Dimes mission, support national and state objectives, and further our strategic goal of reducing disparities in birth outcomes. Proposals will be accepted from organizations with the capacity, competence and experience to accomplish project goals and objectives through one of the following strategies:

 

 

  Increasing access to and quality of health care for women and infants
  Increasing availability of prevention services
  Increasing availability of genetics services and folic acid education
