Heroes for Babies, what an incredible day and event!

The goal of "Heroes for Babies Day" was to raise $2,000,000 for the March of Dimes in one day June 3, 2008.  It was reported that as of 1:30 PST Farmers raised $3,234,816 and counting.  The local efforts in los Angeles was to raise $140,000.00 as of 12:00 PST the local efforts were $150,000.00 and counting!

This is a new all time highest single day fundraising record in March of Dimes history!  the previous record was 2.7 million!

For those of you who are not aware of what the March of Dimes does?  The March of Dimes help save premature babies.  Premature births are an epidemic that has become a health crisis.  Everyday 1,300 babies are born prematurely.  That is 1 in 8 babies born in the U.S.!  Many of the babies are too small and sick to go home and face weeks or even months fighting for their lives in a neonatal intensive care unit.  Sadly some never make it home.

The efforts of events like this, is to help lower these statistics and to give these babies a fighting chance.

Join me in congratulating all those who participated in this event, Well done, it was a tremendous success!
