Methodist Health System is a proud sponsor of March for Babies, a major fundraiser for the March of Dimes, set for Saturday, April 29, at Lewis and Clark Landing in downtown Omaha.

March for Babies is a family-friendly event, complete with breakfast and plenty of fun kids’ activities, including a NEW Super Hero Run! The three-mile walk begins at 10 a.m. on Saturday, April 29, 2017.

About March for Babies

Funds raised at March for Babies support research and programs that help moms have healthy pregnancies and babies begin healthy lives. They will also be used to bring comfort and information to families with a baby in newborn intensive care.

Methodist delivers more babies and treats more pre-term infants in our Neonatal Intensive Care Unit than any other hospital in the region. Join our team and show your support of Methodist’s commitment to our patients and the mission of the March of Dimes.
