Hundreds of people came together at the State Capitol in Charleston this weekend to march for babies.
The annual walk, sponsored by the March of Dimes, kicked off Sunday afternoon.
The goal is to raise money to help fund research so that moms will have full term pregnancies, and also help babies who are born too soon.
About 800 people participated.
