Fundraise for MJF

Do you love bringing people together? Are you passionate about making a difference for babies and families? By hosting a fundraising event for the Macie Jo Foundation, you can turn your creativity and community spirit into life-saving impact.

​

Every dollar you raise helps us advance our mission to prevent hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy (HIE), support affected families, and advocate for safer birth systems.

Why Host a Fundraiser?

HIE affects thousands of newborns each year—changing the course of lives forever. Your event helps fund:

​

  • Educational programs for parents and healthcare providers

  • Family support initiatives, including care packages and emergency assistance

  • Policy advocacy to improve birth safety nationwide

  • Awareness campaigns that save futures

 

When you host a fundraiser, you’re not just collecting donations—you’re giving hope.
