My buddies at the Publix in Greenville are having a campaign to help raise money for one of the best organizations that I can think of–The March of Dimes!!

I am pretty sure most of you are aware of the wonderful work done each year by The March of Dimes. Here is a little refresher for any of you who may not be aware of all they do:

The mission of The March of Dimes is to improve the health of babies through the prevention of birth defects, prematurity and infant mortality. The March of Dimes carries out this mission through programs of research, community services, education and advocacy. Over 580,000 babies a year in the U.S. are born too small or too soon. Your gift will support March of Dimes research and programs that help moms have full-term pregnancies and babies begin healthy lives. And it will be used to bring comfort and information to families with a baby in newborn intensive care.

The March of Dimes spends 93% of every dollar raised in March for Babies to support research and programs that help babies begin healthy lives.

I am so happy to help out and would love if you all would consider contributing to this VERY worthwhile cause!! If  just a fraction of my readers were to donate $5 each –we would have the $5000 goal met in one day!!   If you are able to give please click the banner to make a donation.  If you are able to donate please put I Heart Publix in parenthesis when completing your submission.  Jen wants to be able to track the donations and I have a special surprise planned as well 🙂

I know money is tight for so many but this is a cause that I feel is definitely worth a contribution!!  I am going to stick the banner in the sidebar once this post is off the front page.

Thanks so much everyone!!
