Team Youth and the March of Dimes


Sarasota, Florida-based Raymond Gault, senior vice president at Capitas Financial, supports multiple philanthropic organizations in his spare time. Having served as the president of the Sarasota March of Dimes, Raymond Gault encourages those of all ages to raise awareness about premature birth, and to become volunteers for this important cause.

The March of Dimes is a nationally recognized foundation inspired by President Franklin Roosevelt and his battle with polio, called infantile paralysis. Today, the organization seeks to prevent birth defects and infant mortality, donating to research and education for medical professionals. 

Team Youth is a program for young people of all ages, from elementary school to college, to make a difference in this cause. The team currently has hundreds of thousands of volunteers throughout the nation, educating peers, creating community awareness and leading fundraising programs. 

Various events at different age levels take place each year. The Wonderwalk, for example, is a fundraising event for preschool and elementary-aged children, while those in high school can participate through school clubs like the Key Club and Future Business Leaders of America.
