More Than Tripled Their Fundraising Goal!

The team poses together before the start of the walk (Yuliya is on the far right).
Yuliya was happy to inform her coworkers at GPS that her family’s team, Heartbeats Are Happiness, raised more than triple the goal amount this year for participating in the ‘March for Babies’ Walk to benefit the March of Dimes Foundation. Their goal was $550, which they far exceeded.
“We raised $1,680 this year! Over $1,000 came from GPS—thank you, everyone, for your donations!”
The March for Babies is a very personal cause for Yuliya and her family. The team walked in memory of Yuliya’s two baby girls, Angelina and Gabriella, raising money to support full term pregnancies and healthy babies by funding research, supporting families, and helping women. Yuliya’s sons (who were also both born premature) saved up dimes in their piggy banks all year for this special event and joined their family, once again, in walking.

Yuliya shared that while it was cold in the morning,
at the end of the walk, the weather was beautiful in Chicago.

Special shout out to our coworker Andrea (far left) who also walked to show her support!
