NJMET Vice President Joseph Federico has announced their eight annual sponsorship of a team in the Walkathon to benefit the March of Dimes on Sunday May 1, 2011 in New York City.

“Team NJMET of Clifton, NJ will assemble at Lincoln Center on 62^nd Street between Columbus and Amsterdam Avenues at 8:00am” said team leader Joseph Federico, of NJMET headquartered in Clifton, NJ.

Babies need your help

Over the past seven decades millions of babies have been saved from death of disability thanks to advances made by March of Dimes-funded scientists, including 13 Nobel Prize winners, but babies are still in danger.

Every year:

• 1,000,000 do not get lifesaving newborn screening tests
• 500,000 are born prematurely
• 150,000 are born with birth defects

If anyone is interested in participating in NJMET’s 2011 March of Dimes Walkathon team, please call Joseph Federico at NJMET’s headquarters in Clifton, NJ at (973)546-5393.
