The March of Dimes is on a mission to bring awareness to prenatal and infant care so every baby gets the healthy start they deserve.  Your sponsorship will help local artists bring the bears to life and once they get their coats of many colors, the furry families will start roaming the streets!      

Be on the lookout for bears in the spring of 2008 until October of 2010, when they will be auctioned off at our French Master Chefs Gourmet Gala.

Upon your sponsorship submission, you will be contacted by a local March of Dimes representative to assist you in the painting and placement of your sponsored bear.

Your bear will be on display until 2010.
