UAW’s PARTNERSHIP WITH MARCH OF DIMES - JOIN THE 2025 MARCH for BABIES UAW NATIONAL TEAM!

Dear Brothers and Sisters,

UAW’s partnership with March of Dimes began in the 1940s when then-President Walter Reuther solicited labor members for dimes to help cure polio.

Families today need us now more than ever.
