As the March of Dimes biggest fund-raiser, WalkAmerica supports
research and programs that help fight threats to the health
of the 470,000 babies in the U.S. who are born too soon
every year.
Join WalkAmerica and the hundreds of thousands of compassionate
people in 1,100 communities across the nation, including
approximately 20,000 company teams and our national sponsors
who walk each year. WalkAmerica participants have raised more than
$1.5 billion since 1970 to bring the March of Dimes closer to
saving all babies from premature birth and other serious infant
health problems.
You can also use our
