“Be a Hero for Babies Day” Raises $3.2 Million for March of Dimes
Farmers Insurance Group Exceeds Goal, Breaks Record
 
For the third consecutive year, Farmers insurance agents led efforts across America for the company’s “Be a Hero for Babies Day,” raising $3.2 million. This accomplishment exceeds their $2 million goal and set a new single-day fundraising record for the March of Dimes, breaking Farmers’ own record set last year when they raised $2.7 million. The money will support March of Dimes research and education to help moms have full-term pregnancies and healthy babies.

Again this year, Farmers matched all donations made up to $250,000 and is committed to the March of Dimes to “get babies back where they belong – healthy and strong.”
