November is Prematurity Awareness Month. 1 in 8 babies are born too soon every year- that is 13 million babies born premature every year. Join the March of Dimes and help raise awareness about premature birth and infant mortality by wearing purple to show your support. You might have noticed the display on McKeldin mall that highlights this statistic. The March of Dimes Collegiate Council at UMD is organizing a GBM, today, November 19th to organize family care kits for the NICU at Harbor Hospital in Baltimore. All those who are interested are welcome. The meeting will be held at the STAMP union, 5:00 to 7:00 PM in Stamp Thurgood Marshall, 2113.
