March of Dimes Commemorative Coin

Washington, DC, March 05, 2012 —

To Friends and Neighbors:

Take One Minute to Raise $5 Million for March of Dimes!

The March of Dimes will soon be celebrating its 75th anniversary.  As a part of this historic event, efforts are under way in Congress to mint a commemorative coin to recognize the landmark accomplishments made by the March of Dimes in maternal and child health.  If passed, sales of this coin would generate about $5 million for March of Dimes programs.  In order to qualify for a vote, the coin legislation must have 290 cosponsors in the House of Representative and 67 cosponsors in the U.S. Senate.  We're making progress, but this is a steep hill to climb-help us to urge Members of Congress to cosponsor the March of Dimes Commemorative Coin Act of 2011 (S.1935/H.R.3187) today!
