SFC's Walk to Find Juvenile Diabetes Cure Grosses $245,000
For the fourth year in a row, Shoes For Crews demonstrated its commitment as a good corporate citizen by having Chief Executive Matthew K. Smith become the honorary chairman of the Juvenile Diabetes Research Fund's annual Walk to Cure Diabetes.
Under SFC's sponsorship, the March 5th walk raised $245,000 - more than $500,000 in just the past two years - a far cry from the $8,000 raised the first year of the company's involvement.
Anne Noble, special events coordinator of the JDRF Walk, said about 2,500 people participated in the event, walking about 2.5 miles between the Meyer Amphitheatre and Palm Beach Lakes.
Among the 2,500 participants were 40 individuals from SFC who contributed $9,000 to the total tally.
Noble said the Palm Beach walk is one of some 200 walks to raise funds to fight juvenile diabetes around the country.
