WalkAmerica is now March for Babies. The name has changed but the goal remains the same. We're walking for the health of ALL babies!

Austin's March for Babies will be Saturday May 10, 2008 at Auditorium Shores.

Why Walk?

Because right now, premature birth touches half a million babies and their families every year.

Because babies born too soon are more likely to die, or have lifelong disabilities.

Because 120,000 babies are born with serious birth defects every year.

And because every baby deserves someone in their corner.

The March of Dimes is here for all babies-those born healthy and those that need help to survive and thrive.

KVUE has been a proud sponsor of this event for years. In 2007 as WalkAmerica, the event attracted more than 7,000 walkers and raised more than $1 million locally to help fight birth defects.

KVUE's Melissa Gale leads the KVUE team of volunteers as well as the other walkers, inviting everyone to come join March for Babies. The solution is simple. Sign up today and walk with us! To register go to www.marchofdimes.com.

Join us in the first March for Babies and make a difference in the lives of millions of babies!
