Promise Walk for Preeclampsia to benefit the Preeclampsia Foundation

Mission Statement

Our Mission
The Preeclampsia Foundation reduces maternal and infant illness and death due to preeclampsia , HELLP syndrome , and other hypertensive disorders of pregnancy by providing patient support and education, raising public awareness, catalyzing research and improving healthcare practices. We envision a world where preeclampsia no longer threatens the lives of mothers and babies.
