“We Believe In Miracles” Buses Tables At Pizza Ranch To Raise Money

"We Believe In Miracles" team was on hand to bus tables at Pizza Ranch in Oskaloosa Monday April 18th, 2011

“We Believe In Miracles”, a team with the March of Dimes, was on hand Monday evening at Pizza Ranch in Oskaloosa to raise money by busing tables for tips. The fundraiser was to help premature babies and to promote healthy babies.

The team came into existence when Rosella Chambers’ nephew was born premature at 26 weeks gestation and weighed 1 pound and 15 ounces. It took 83 days before he could go home. Chambers nephew is now 4 years old and healthy.

Now the team walks and does other fund raisers, such as this, to help raise funds for the March of Dimes. “We try to do as much as we can, because it’s a very big part of our family now.” Chambers said.

The mission statement from the March of Dimes Website: “We help moms have full-term pregnancies and research the problems that threaten the health of babies.”
