What if every time you bought a pair of shoes for your little one, you helped another baby take a healthy first step in life? Sounds wonderful, doesn’t it? That’s precisely what jbrds is working toward.

At jbrds, each purchase goes beyond your cart; it supports real change. Through our partnership with March of Dimes, we’re joining hands to improve infant wellness and create a stronger start for every child.

If that sounds like something you’d love to be part of, keep reading. You’ll discover how this partnership works, what it supports, and how it reflects jbrds’ mission to nurture growing feet and bright futures.

Who March of Dimes Serves  (and How)

Let’s first introduce you to our partner, March of Dimes. What started as a non-profit organisation in 1938, President Roosevelt's fight against polio, is now called the March of Dimes. 

Over the years, March of Dimes has evolved from combating polio to championing infant health, preventing birth-related challenges, and supporting mothers nationwide.

Today, the organization continues its mission through research, education, advocacy, and community programs that work to prevent avoidable risks to maternal and infant health.

Programs That Support Families Before and After Birth

From day one, March of Dimes has focused on bettering the lives of parents and children alike. They have worked to prevent birth defects, find the causes of preterm births, and support families from pregnancy onward across all life stages. 

Their programs offer resources for prenatal education, birth planning, NICU support, and guidance for families caring for medically fragile infants. Their every effort helps the parents get through those overwhelming first few months of parenthood and lays the foundation for lifelong health.

What the Jbrds Partnership Looks Like

Each pair of jbrds carries that purpose forward. It’s more than a shoe, it’s a small act of care that reaches beyond your child’s first steps. With March of Dimes on board, your purchase supports programs that guide mothers through pregnancy and help babies begin life with the care they need.

From Brand Mission to Measurable Support

You might be thinking, the initiative sounds great, but how does it work? So, when you buy shoes for your baby using the jbrds MODJBRDS code, $5 from your purchase goes directly to the March of Dimes’ infant wellness programs. Plus, you get $20 off on this purchase. It’s that simple. 

Every choice you make supports real work: from helpful guides for parents to programs that spread awareness about infant health and wellbeing. 

Where Your Purchase Helps: Impact Pillars

Let's discuss how your purchase brings real-life changes. Every eligible jbrds purchase helps fund programs that support families from pregnancy through early milestones. Your order contributes to prenatal education, guides for healthy infant growth, and NICU support for medically fragile babies.

Education, Access, and Family Support

The following is how your empathic choice makes a real difference across education, access, and family support.

• Education and Resources: For new parents, everything can feel overwhelming. What they really need is a trusted source of guidance. jbrds supports this by funding MOD’s resources, such as guides and webinars on healthy pregnancy and infant milestones, which help parents feel confident and make informed choices. 

• Access and Equity: Contributions support underserved communities, ensuring every family can access crucial resources.

• NICU Family Support: Funds help families navigate the NICU experience, offering guidance, comfort, and continuity of care.

These pillars collectively strengthen infant health and give parents practical tools to ensure infant wellness confidently.

Why Jbrds Design Aligns With the Mission

jbrds is about giving children a healthy and balanced first step- and every step following. Our mission to build a strong foundation for a child’s lifelong health aligns perfectly with the March of Dimes’ vision of supporting families, today and for the future. 

Science-Led Shoes for Real-World Development

If you’ve been following jbrds, you know our shoes are made with tiny feet in mind. They have a stable heel, flexible forefoot, and wide toe box that support early movement. This design encourages safe, comfortable first steps while promoting proper foot development.

Combined with the March of Dimes’ educational resources, this approach helps babies grow strong and builds a foundation for overall wellness. Every pair you buy supports both comfort and health.
