Despite the rain, an estimated 9,000 metro Atlanta residents joined together in support of the smallest citizens of our community - babies. In Downtown Atlanta, the Georgia World Congress Center and three other sites in Gwinnett, North Fulton and West Metro played host to the annual March for Babies. March of Dimes Board members, staff and community partners welcomed the annual brigade of baby strollers, families and corporate teams walking in honor of babies born healthy and those who need help to survive and thrive.
