Videographers for Babies

Every April, Kristen and I take part in the March of Dimes largest fundraiser "March for Babies".

You can help me in my efforts to give all babies a healthy start by sponsoring me in this year's walk!

As many of you know, I work for the March of Dimes as a Producer in the Audio Visual Department, so it goes without saying that I'd be walking and fund raising to the best of my videographer's abilities!


Normally, everyone walks six or so miles at a location that's closest to their home, but I'm one of the fortunate ones that gets to travel across the country, filming different walks throughout the months of March and April.

That's me in the back behind the audio guy, holding on for dear life.

Last year, I directed a crew in Kansas City, the year before that Cincinnati, once in the Big Apple, and another time in Boston.

Anyways, the important thing is, no matter where I'm walking, it's for a good cause; healthy babies.

Let me take a moment to brag about what the March of Dimes has been doing lately:

1. We're On the Front Lines
In local communities across the country, we're helping moms take charge of their health, and supporting families when something goes wrong. The March of Dimes also acts globally: sharing best practices in perinatal health and helping improve birth outcomes where the needs are the most urgent.

2. We're Educating Moms
We're reaching moms with information on having full-term and healthy pregnancies. Professional education and medical resources on topics like premature birth and birth defects, are helping health care providers better support their patients.

3. We're Creating Change Through Advocacy
National guidelines for newborn screening were issued to help promote consistency among states so that all babies are screened for life-threatening identifiable, but treatable, disorders regardless of where they live.

Yes, we've been busy and yes, we're not just resting on our past successes (kicked the crap out of polio, by the way). Babies across America need help and we're the organization that's best suited to do the job.
