AURORA, IL – October 14, 2020
Maker’s Merci is proud to partner with four different charities, to donate $15,290 and support those in need. The donation was raised through a 31-Day Step Challenge – ‘Step-up for a Cause’ event at Simplify Healthcare, a leading Healthcare technology solutions provider.
The walkathon was a successful event in which a total of 28 people participated with 5 teams and 8 individuals. The team collectively walked an incredible 5.6 million steps in 4 weeks (around 2,687 miles), which is nearly walking around the US from the East Coast to West Coast! The winners managed to raise $15,290 and were given an opportunity to support the social initiatives they believe in. The funds were donated to the following charities:
Donate without Borders is an independent international medical relief organization providing medical care where it is needed most in nearly 70 countries. $1,618.25 was donated to the non-profit organization.
