About the March of Dimes: History

In 1938, President Franklin Delano Roosevelt created The March of Dimes to defeat polio. With the assistance of millions of volunteers, including the courageous Polio Pioneers who participated in the polio vaccine field trials of 1954 and 1955, the March of Dimes won the battle against polio -- funding ground-breaking research by Dr. Jonas Salk that produced the first safe & effective vaccine for polio.

About the March of Dimes: Current Mission

  • Continuing FDR's vision of a world in which children live without fear of disease, the March of Dimes works today to improve the health of babies through prevention of birth defects and infant mortality. Research, Education, Community Service, and Advocacy are the cornerstones of our mission. Here are some quick facts:
  • As a non-profit foundation (501c3), The March of Dimes maintains a vigorous research grant program, annually investing many tens of millions of dollars in leading-edge biomedical research conducted by the scientists at the finest academic health centers in the nation.
  • Three million volunteers and 1500 staff in 54 Chapters across the United States work everyday to ensure a healthy start to life for the nation's children.
  • In recent years, the March of Dimes Folic Acid campaign has helped to greatly diminish the incidence of neural tube defects (Spina Bifida) in newborns.
  • Commencing in 2003, The March of Dimes has embarked on a five-year campaign to reduce the growing rate of premature birth in the United States, which now impacts one in eight births.
