County Marches for Healthy Babies

Thanks go out to the 237 employees who participated in the March for Babies walks last month and added our donations to that organization’s important research and healthy baby programs.

County employees sold beanies, candy and raffle tickets to supplement the money donated to the walkers. More than $34,000 were raised because of County employee efforts and more money is still coming in.

“I want to thank all our employees who walked and supported our County team or helped with other fundraising,” said Chief Administrative Officer Walt Ekard. “Our contributions really can make a difference to prevent premature births and help sick babies.”

To donate, visit the March of Dimes website. You can look for a County employee in the “Find a Walker” box so your donation will count toward  San Diego County team efforts.
