NACDS Foundation supports March of Dimes gala
The National Association of Chain Drug Stores Foundation reprised its sponsorship of the annual March of Dimes Gourmet Gala this year. The NACDS Foundation was a platinum sponsor of the event, which took place April 17 in Washington, D.C., and had more than 600 attendees and more than 50 lawmakers serving as celebrity chefs.
“The NACDS Foundation is honored to help present this amazing opportunity in support of March of Dimes programs and research, and we are equally honored to partner with March of Dimes throughout the year,” NACDS Foundation president Kathleen Jaeger said.
The March of Dimes gala raises money for research, education, advocacy and programs designed to help more moms have full-term pregnancies and healthy babies. However, it is one part of collaborations between March of Dimes and the NACDS Foundation. During the past flu season, the two organizations worked together to raise awareness of flu prevention strategies through a radio media tour, and have worked together on disease prevention previously.
“We also have partnered on other public health issues, such as raising awareness of the Zika virus and steps that can be taken to protect mothers and babies,” Jaeger said. “Consistent collaboration across a spectrum of issues reflects the true spirit of collaboration between the NACDS Foundation and our partners."
