OUR MARCH OF DIMES TEAMS ARE OUT OF THIS WORLD

By: Brittany C. Purcell

Teams from UF Health blasted off on a mission to save babies at the annual March of Dimes March for Babies event. On April 13, more than 60 employees volunteered or walked and “reached for the stars” to raise more than $40,778 for the cause.

Congratulations are in order for the UF Health Women’s Center team, which raised $6,282, finishing in second place overall for fundraising and first place among UF Health teams.

Thank you to all who participated and donated to fight for the health of moms and babies!
