PEAK SEVEN WALKS FOR MARCH OF DIMES HELPING BABIES SURVIVE

BOCA RATON, Fla. – During the early morning hours of Saturday, April 26th, thousands of individuals met at Florida Atlantic University in Boca Raton to participate in the annual March of Dimes March for Babies 5K walk.
Peak Seven Advertising, who participated in the charity walk, was among the many teams formed to assist in the mission to help every baby be born healthy. The Peak Seven Strollers (pun intended) raised more than $1,000 for this worthy charity, and above all else, succeeded in bringing the March of Dimes one step closer to its goal.
“As a parent, the only thing you care about is that your baby is welcomed into the world healthy,” said Darren Seys, president of Peak Seven, who is expecting his second child this fall. “My wife and I are extremely fortunate to have been blessed with a healthy boy, and feel directly connected to making an impact through my company to support the program.”
The charitable event has resulted in the protection of babies for more than 70 years. The support gained over the years has stopped polio, increased the survival rate of babies due to surfactant therapy, founded NICU Family Support, and created mobile units for vital prenatal care to pregnant women who otherwise don’t have access. Millions of babies have been saved from death or disability thanks to the advances made by scientists and people who selflessly fundraise and partake in charity.
“My team was excited for the opportunity to unite for a weekend charity walk on behalf of their company,” said Seys. “I feel honored to walk beside them, and together we are making a difference for a healthy life.”
This year, Peak Seven plans to continue its contribution in many more charitable events, which include the Multiple Sclerosis and the American Heart Association walks.
“When you give back, you get more.”
