The March of Dimes speaks out for laws and legislation that improve care for women and children in South Carolina and across the country. Our team of grassroots volunteers and staff promote our mission by contacting the governor and state legislators in response to South Carolina action alerts. Whether promoting increased health care coverage and prevention measures or supporting research and public policy studies, learn how you can make a difference.

Donate locally

If you are a long-time March of Dimes supporter or just giving for the first time we thank you. Your donation supports programs in our community that help moms have healthy pregnancies and babies begin healthy lives. And it provides comfort to families with a sick or premature baby. 

Volunteer

Our work is made possible by thousands of volunteers. There are many ways to assist us in helping babies, moms and families close to home. You can take part in selling sponsorship or event planning opportunities, recruiting new volunteers, coordinating outreach to mission families, serving on our Board of Directors or  Advocacy and Government Affairs Committee, assisting with marketing communications or public relations and much more. Get started today by creating a March of Dimes volunteer profile and email us for more information on volunteer opportunities in your community!
