Each year, Military Baby Showers are hosted by March of Dimes across the country for expecting moms within U.S. military communities. Tri Sigma proudly partners with March of Dimes to support military families through Mission: Healthy Baby.
For many military families and servicewomen, they may be far from their hometown or family support system during their pregnancy. By donating and collecting brand new baby items, we help provide military families with the essentials for welcoming their bundle of joy. Our support helps ensure every military mom and baby gets a strong start.
At each shower, each family receives a shower gift box filled with essentials. Thanks to the generosity of corporate sponsors and national service partners like Tri Sigma, we can ensure every shower has all the supplies to show our military families how much we appreciate their sacrifices for our country.
Help us reach our goal of donating 500 board books to military families! Order from Amazon to have them shipped directly to the March of Dimes Distribution Center or contact the Foundation at foundation@trisigma.org.
I support March of Dimes Mission: Healthy Babies because I know the crippling feeling of being a pregnant woman and watching as my husband is rapidly deployed to a war zone. The military baby showers March of Dimes throws help bring education to spouses and service members on how to reduce stress during pregnancy and also showers them with gifts. It is more than a baby shower, it is a wonderful way to show love and support our smallest American heroes.

I have been a military spouse for 11 years, and I have two children of my own. My first child was born unexpectedly 6 weeks early, and I found it very challenging to face with no family support nearby. Many military families are in a similar situation where they are having children far away from family support systems. Because we are often thousands of miles away from home when we bring new members into our families, it is so wonderful to have a program such as the March of Dimes Mission: Healthy Babies to provide military baby showers for the families of our service members.
