Recycle @ March for Babies

05/10/2008

The March of Dimes is renaming its premier fundraising event from WalkAmerica

to March for Babies. The name change leaves no question about why people are

participating in the event – for the health of all babies.  By engaging more people in the

mission, and educating more pregnant women and moms about healthy babies we hope

to reach our goal of giving every baby a healthy start that much sooner. About 7,000

walkers in 2007, including individuals and participants from many of Austin’s largest

companies, joined us at our event.  Event organizers expect around 8,000 to join them

for food, music, great company and a great cause this year! Babies and children are

welcome (and expected!!).   Volunteer help is needed to make sure as much waste is

recycled as possible.
