Noodles Night & Cold Stone to benefit March of Dimes

Dine at Noodles and Co. on Saturday, April 2nd between 4 and 9 pm and 25% of your purchase will be donated back to the March of Dimes!  **Be sure to print off the attached flier below - click on "buy tickets" and bring it in that evening!  Following your delicious meal at Noodles, head next door to Cold Stone Creamery for scrumptious ice cream and a portion of your order will also be donated to the March of Dimes.   We'll have drawings for prizes and gift cards!!  The mission of March of Dimes is to improve the health of babies by preventing birth defects, premature birth and infant mortality. 

Two and a half years ago Ellery Case was born with rare and life-threatening conditions putting her chances at life at only 5%.   Because of the March of Dimes and their funding of life-saving therapies, Ellery is here today!

 One in eight babies are born prematurely (prior to 37 weeks), and one in eight are born with a birth defect.  Prematurity is the leading cause of death in babies within the first month of life, and prematurity is the leading cause of death in babies. 

Ellery was born both premature and with multiple birth defects.  We hope you'll join us not only to honor Ellery, but to help save the lives yet to be born.  Every dime counts!
