From advocacy to education to research, March of Dimes is working to level the playing field so that all moms and babies are healthy and strong. When we come together as a community, even the toughest problems can be solved. And by fighting to improve maternal and infant health, we’re ensuring that families have the support and care they need today and for generations to come.

MARCH OF DIMES • BRAND BOOK • VISUAL IDENTITY March of Dimes leads the fight for the health of all moms and babies. “We believe every mom and baby deserves the best possible start.” Preterm and premature mean the same thing — early. Preterm labor is labor that begins early, before 37 weeks of pregnancy. Labor is the process your body goes through to give birth to your baby. Preterm labor can lead to preterm birth. Preterm birth is when your baby is born early, before 37 weeks of pregnancy. Your baby needs about 40 weeks in the womb to grow and develop before birth. Babies born before 37 weeks of pregnancy are called premature. Premature babies can have serious health problems at birth and later in life. In this country 1 in 10 babies is born prematurely each year. NATIONAL OFFICE

SOLID PINK SOLID PURPLE THIN SOLID LINE Supportive Empathetic THE MCBRIDE FAMILY’S STORY We welcomed our daughter to the world at just 25 weeks and 4 days of pregnancy. Juliana Charlotte Madison McBride was born weighing just 1 pound, 11 ounces. Juliana spent months in the hospital, the first 10 weeks of her life was in the NICU. She was then transferred to a second hospital for neurosurgery. When we first saw her, we were in awe of how tiny she was, that she made it and how she fought to live from day one. Every day of her life in the NICU was emotional for us, but we embraced every moment of it. We have shed many tears, and I’m sure we’ll shed more, because what we’ve realized is that we love her more than life itself. We just didn’t know that love could be this strong. Today Juliana is thriving. Thank you for joining our family and countless others at March for Babies this year. Your support funds the research and programs that will help give all babies the best possible start.

One in nine babies is born too soon, which can often lead to serious and lifelong health consequences. No organization is more committed to giving every baby the best possible start than March of Dimes. You just have to look at the accomplishments of March of Dimes to understand why we all must join their fight to improve the health of moms and babies. Please join me and our associates at ACME Foundation in helping March of Dimes, because when we come together to support every family the future is brighter for us all.
