The Iron Giving Challenge

Baby Steps presents:

Support Student-Moms. Fuel the Rivalry!

Auburn vs. Alabama—it’s more than just a game. This November, our campuses go head-to-head to raise funds for Student-Moms through the Iron Giving Challenge. From November 4-30, show your school pride and make a lasting impact by supporting Student-Moms working hard to continue their education in the midst of an unplanned pregnancy.

What is the Iron Giving Challenge?


The Iron Giving Challenge is a friendly fundraising competition inspired by the classic rivalry between Auburn and Alabama that culminates with the Iron Bowl matchup.

With the support of students, alumni, and members of the community, our goal is to see which university can raise the most to support Student-Moms on their campus. These funds provide the essential housing, community, and support needed to empower Student-Moms through their college journey.

Ways to Give

In Person: Drop your donation in the Iron Giving Challenge jars at participating restaurants and businesses near campus.

Venmo: Donate from anywhere through venmo @babysteps_org and comment “War Eagle” or “Roll Tide” in the description.

Why It Matters

Your support helps ensure Student-Moms facing an unplanned pregnancy have access to vital resources and a strong support network on campus.

This November, let’s take school pride to the next level by making a real impact. Which school will rise to the challenge? Let’s make every dollar count.
