Be a part of one of the biggest events for March for Babies in Indiana at the Terre Haute March for Babies April 24th at ISU Memorial Stadium.

When you walk, you give hope to the families of babies born too soon or sick. The money you raise supports programs in our community that help moms have healthy, full-term pregnancies. And it funds research to find answers to the serious problems that threaten our babies.

We’ve been walking since 1970 and have accomplished a lot that benefits all babies.  For more details on how March for Babies has impacted the lives of babies and families, visit “why we walk” at http://www.marchforbabies.org/

Ad Dancer with Custom Dye-Sub Printed Logo / Message

Dye-sublimation is a printing process that uses heat to transfer dye onto medium materials such as a plastic card, paper, or in this case Ripstop Nylon fabric. The sublimation name is applied because the dye transitions between the solid and gas states without going through a liquid stage. This means that your logo is permanently absorbed into the fabric producing the highest quality image possible with lasting results.
