Welcome to our Promise Walk!

We are excited to put on Hoboken's first Promise Walk to raise awareness, provide support, and fund vital research. This will be the closest walk for those in NYC and the surrounding areas. 

What is Preeclampsia?

Preeclampsia is a serious disease related to high blood pressure during pregnancy that takes the lives of 76,000 mothers and 500,000 babies each year worldwide. It can happen to any pregnant woman during the second half of her pregnancy, or up to six weeks after delivery. Right now, there’s no known cure for preeclampsia or way to prevent it. That’s why we walk.
