Georgia Power’s Atlanta Region & Corporate Relations team recently provided a $10,000 donation to March for Dimes to support mothers and babies across Northwest Georgia and the metro area, according to a press release.

The donation will be used to provide new programs and resources for families during the COVID-19 pandemic including virtual NICU support programs, virtual prenatal programs, COVID-19 interventions and support for mothers and babies, educational programs and necessary supplies for expectant mothers including blood pressure cuffs and face masks.

For more than 80 years, March of Dimes has helped millions of mothers and babies of all ages, socio-economic backgrounds and demographics thrive. The March for Dimes organization supports mothers throughout their pregnancy and advocates for policies that prioritize their health.
