Fighting for Firsts

Thank you for a successful Fighting for Firsts Campaign and Gala this year!

Thank you to all of our champions, guests, sponsors, and donors who made our Fighting for Firsts celebration such a success. Because of your generosity, we raised $70,000 to support healthier beginnings for families in our community!

Together, we’re helping more babies reach their first birthday—with 3,000 babies celebrating this milestone since 2015.
