Help Babies Grow!

April 20th, 2008 • Related • Filed Under

You may (or may not) know this about the editors here at ybpguide, but we’re expecting our first child at the end of July. As you can imagine, our lives have changed for the better and it’s caused me to personally look at things in a whole new way.

From movies like Look Who’s Talking to TLC’s Bringing Home Baby, the astute learner I am craves as much knowledge as I possibly can so I can be a good father. Kimberly can even attest to that, as I’m always nagging her about eating her vegetables to make sure our baby is getting enough vitamins. :-)

Whether children are in your present or future, or if you feel like your contributions to making this world a better place will be through mentorship, helping young people is the only way we can effectively saturate our culture with successful future Black professionals. However, the health in their infant years is crucial.

You can help babies now by supporting me in my March for Babies, a walk going around all around the country by the March of Dimes. You can see the little badge on the left side of the blog of our future, and I’m asking for you guys to donate. Any amount will do, but I’m looking to raise $250 by Sunday, April 27th.

Check out the ybpguide page, donate, spread the word, and Help Babies Grow!
