Associates and Bruce L. Scheiner, Attorneys for the Injured is proud to team up with the March of Dimes and motorcycle riders across Southwest Florida to sponsor the 18th Annual Southwest Florida March of Dimes Bikers for Babies event. Bruce L. Scheiner and son P.J. Scheiner, a trial attorney for the firm, are co-chairs of the police-escorted motorcycle ride on Nov. 4 from North Collier Regional Park to Seminole Casino Hotel Immokalee.
Bikers for Babies has raised more than $2 million in Southwest Florida since 2001 to support medical treatments and education geared to help more mothers have full-term pregnancies and stronger, healthier babies.
“I’ve spent my career pursuing justice for those who otherwise would have no voice. Premature babies and infants suffering from severe health challenges can’t ask for better care, but we can,” Bruce L. Scheiner said. “I’m eager to support Bikers for Babies and everything they do to improve the lives of newborn babies and their families.”
About 1,500 bikers are expected to take part in this year’s ride, which will be the only March of Dimes Bikers for Babies event in the U.S.
The goal is to raise $150,000 for the March of Dimes, which invests 76 cents of every dollar in research and support for programs that help babies begin healthy lives. Learn more about how the funds are distributed at marchforbabies.org/waystohelp.
“As the parent of a young child, I’m proud to have the opportunity to work with March of Dimes and Bikers for Babies to support newborns and their families,” P.J. Scheiner said. “My heart goes out to every family that has to suffer through pregnancy or delivery complications, and I’m honored to stand with bikers across Southwest Florida to make sure those families get the attention, care and resources they so desperately need.”
All licensed motorcyclists are eligible to take part. To find out how to get involved, call the firm at 800-283-2900 or the March of Dimes at 239-271-2564.
