For the past month, The March of Dimes has held their March for Babies event throughout the country to support funds to help prevent birth disorders and defects.

If you missed the walk this year (or if you walked and forgot to get a T-Shirt), you can still support the March of Dimes by buying this T-Shirt (or other accessories) at Zazzle.Com.

This beautiful necklace, available from Red Envelope, is made from sterling silver with a chain with an adjustable length from 16″-18″. The pendant is a single, unending loop to symbolize mother and child in an eternal embrace.

For every necklace sold, Red Envelope will donate 10 percent of the proceeds to the March of Dimes to help baby health and prevent birth defects.

In 1938, the March of Dimes was founded to fight the devastating disease of childhood polio.

In 1955, the charity achieved what all charities hope to achieve but few charities do: to make itself unnecessary. When Dr. Jonas Salk introduced the vaccine to polio, largely funded by efforts from the March of Dimes, polio in our times was wiped away.

Rather than going out of business, in 1958, The March of Dimes changed its mission from fighting polio to continuing the fight to help mothers and children. Its mission changed to preventing premature birth, birth defects, and infant mortality. Today, it’s still going strong.

This designer March of Dimes Diaper Bag is from JP Lizzy. It comes with everything you’d expect in a great diaper bag: lots of pockets, made of microfiber wipable fabric, and coordinated changing pad. As a bonus, it doubles as a very stylish messenger bag, so it looks as great in the boardroom as it works in the changing room.

A portion of proceeds goes to help the March of Dimes.
