"Moms today want reliable information about pregnancy and baby health in the most convenient way possible," said Dr. Jennifer L. Howse, president of March of Dimes. "Instead of sifting through books, magazines and Web sites, we hope moms will come to the March of Dimes first for their pregnancy and baby health needs.

About one in four Kentucky children and one in eight Indiana children live in poverty. That's why Girl Scouts are asking their communities to join them in Wee Care, a Girl Scout service project during Valentine's Week, Feb. 11-18.

Since 1999, the Wee Care service project has helped meet the needs of less fortunate children in Kentucky and Indiana communities.

More than 22,000 Girl Scouts from across Kentuckiana have partnered with their local county health departments to assist parents with baby care items.
