From the press release:
The March of Dimes North Carolina Chapter is pleased to announce the availability of funding for community agencies working to improve the health of women before and during pregnancy. The March of Dimes Chapter Grant Program is designed to invest in projects that will further the Foundation’s mission of improving the health of babies by preventing birth defects, premature birth and infant mortality. The Community Grants Program funds projects up to $50,000, with an average of $20,000 per grant. The process begins with a Letter of Intent which is due July 22, 2011. For a downloadable Request for Proposals brochure and instructions, please visit www.marchofdimes.com/northcarolina/1982.asp.

These investments represent one of the many ways that the March of Dimes pursues its mission to prevent birth defects, premature birth, and infant mortality.
