There's Hope!Over the last decade, the March of Dimes campaign urging women of childbearing age to take daily doses of folic acid has helped to reduce the incidence of birth defects of the spine and brain by 35%. March of Dimes-supported advances in the treatment of premature babies, like surfactant therapy and specialized care in neonatal intensive care units (NICUs), have helped thousands of premature babies survive and thrive.

Welcome to Team Tomato!
Please support Team Tomato as we walk to help save babies at the 2007 March of Dimes WalkAmerica event!! This is our 4th annual walk in memory of our 2 precious angel babies, Christopher Michael and Alexander Harris, who were born premature and too small to survive. Our hope is that somehow we can prevent other families from experiencing the same tragedy. With your support, there’s hope, By Tom the Tomato at Jan 29 2006 - 4:09pm

Hi! I am Tom the Tomato, the official mascot of Team Tomato, and I would like to welcome you to our home. Team Tomato is a WalkAmerica family team dedicated to supporting the March of Dimes and their fight to end premature birth and birth defects. The funds that we raise for the March of Dimes help support research and programs to find out how to prevent premature birth and how to help families who experience it. As prematurity is the number one cause of newborn death, the search for answers to this growing crisis is crucial to ensuring that all babies get a healthy start in the world. 
Be a SUPER HERO for babies!
