Established in 1921 in response to the polio epidemic, the March of Dimes has been striving to prevent birth defects, premature birth, and infant mortality ever since. With more than 1400 premature babies born in the U.S. each year, the March of Dimes funds research, education, and health care for affected families.
Why It Pays to Give: In addition to financial donations, each year, over 600,000 volunteers participate in signature programs like Mothers March and March for Babies.
