2023 Ottawa Promise Walk for Preeclampsia : Sunday, Sept. 10

We are thrilled to be hosting our 4th Promise Walk for Preeclampsia Canada in Ottawa! The Promise Walk for Preeclampsia™ began in 2005 by our sister organization, Preeclampsia Foundation. These walk events have raised millions of dollars to fund research and improve health care practices globally.

Preeclampsia affects 5-8% of all pregnancies and approximately 10 million mothers will develop preeclampsia across the world each year, yet according to the World Health Organization (WHO), preeclampsia is one of the least funded areas of research. We need your help to realize our vision of a world where preeclampsia no longer threatens the lives of mothers and babies. Please join us!
