Miracle Network Dance Marathons Raise Awareness on Child Health Day

On Monday, October 1, many of the over 400 collegiate and K-12 Miracle Network Dance Marathon programs throughout the nation are celebrating Child Health Day.

Child Health Day is a United States Federal Observance Day observed on the first Monday in October. In a Presidential Proclamation in 2013, President Barack Obama said “On Child Health Day, we are reminded of our first, most urgent task—to protect and develop the health of our children. Today, let us reaffirm our commitment to our Nation’s youth and remember our future depends on their success.”

$10 is also the average cost of a meal at a majority of restaurants in Kennesaw meaning you could skip going out to dinner and buy a case of preemie diapers instead! #ChildHealthDay #CommitForTheKids pic.twitter.com/fagNA5KBla
