Are you an engaging person? Do you know someone who is?

Help us honour some of the most engaging people—those who volunteer with March of Dimes Canada. Once again we’re celebrating the contributions and achievements of those people or organizations that make a difference in the lives of thousands of Canadians living with a disability.
