11 MANIFESTO We believe that every mom and baby deserve the best possible start. But that’s just not the case. Two babies die every hour in the U.S. And about every 12 hours a woman dies as a result of complications from pregnancy. It’s not fine. But together we can change things. 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 • VERBAL IDENTITY
