The Gator Nation has proven time and time again that when faced with a challenge, we stand alone as winners. Now our team is faced with a new battle...the battle against prematurity. Currently 1 in every 10 babies is born prematurely and the numbers are rising! Just like the UF athletes need your support as fans, we desperately need your help to fight and conquer this epidemic.

​

The March of Dimes Collegiate Council at UF was established 18 years ago. Its purpose is to be a collegiate fundraiser for all students, alumni and staff to support the March of Dimes' effort to help all babies have a healthy and full term birth. In the past 18 years, MODCC has grown to over 1,500 yearly participants and has raised nearly $700,000 for the March of Dimes.

​

This year, the annual MODCC walk/run will take place virtually December on the University of Florida campus. You can help future Gator Babies have the winning change for a healthy birth by simply raising money and attending our virtual event.
