Move it for Millie will be held to raise awareness of the rare genetic disorder Turner Syndrome. All proceeds will be donated to the Turner Syndrome Foundation in honor of Heather and Brad Benoit's unborn daughter, Millie Raelynn Benoit, who lost her battle at 27 weeks gestation. As her parents, we want to celebrate her life and to advocate for her. She fought hard and made it longer than many other Turner Syndrome babies in pregnancy.
