Midmark
Launches Wellness Challenge to Support Dayton Children’s Hospital
Teammates to participate in Miracle Challenge
DAYTON, Ohio, April 1, 2016 — Midmark Corporation today announced the
launch of a 27-day wellness challenge that encourages individuals to
achieve fitness goals all while fundraising for Dayton Children’s
Hospital. A newly formed Midmark committee will partner with the
company’s wellness team, Feel the H.E.A.T., for the Miracle Challenge
fundraiser. All Midmark Teammates and their families are invited to
participate by raising $10 per day during the challenge.
Midmark launched a fundraising campaign for Dayton Children’s in early
February, holding other events including a Valentine’s Day raffle,
spring plant sale and an online auction. The company will continue its
efforts through April, with a Zumbathon® charity event scheduled April
29 in Versailles, Ohio. Midmark will co-sponsor the event with the
Darke County YMCA and instructors Lynn Blakeley and Liza Pezzimenti
Harbour. Midmark will match up to $7,500 for all funds raised since
February. All proceeds will go towards the purchase of AccuVein® Vein
Finders and Air-Oxygen Blender equipment for Dayton Children’s.
“Our relationship with Dayton Children’s began with the annual K99.1FM
Cares for Kids Radiothon three years ago. Their mission to provide
quality healthcare for children hits home for most of our teammates and
our community as it aligns well with our mission to make a positive
difference in the practice of healthcare and in every life we touch,”
said Angela Meiring, chair of the Midmark fundraising committee. “While
we are hoping to raise funds to help children in our community, we are
also encouraging our teammates and families to be healthy and engaged
through fitness activity. Together, we hope to make a positive
difference.”
Sponsors and partners for the 2016 Miracle Challenge include Delta
Airlines®, Marriott® and Direct Energy® among others. For more
