We present first results of our XMM-Newton observations of the nearby dwarf galaxies IC 2574, Holmberg I and Sextans A. These objects are part of our multi-frequency observing campaign to study the physical conditions of the interstellar medium (ISM) of dwarf galaxies. The selected ensemble of low-mass dwarf galaxies was chosen to show prominent supergiant HI holes in their ISM which are considered to be tracers of past massive star formation. Using the new XMM-Newton data we search for X-ray emission emerging from coronal gas inside these HI holes. We present a correlation analysis of the various unresolved X-ray sources and their counterparts seen in other wavelengths. We also discuss whether or not evidence is found that hot gas is vent into the halo of these low-mass systems.
