For "Team Mitsui USA" of March of Dimes WalkAmerica it is employees who drive Mitsui USA's fund-raising efforts, because it's employees who volunteer lots of time and energy to collect pledges and run office-held, March of Dimes "wrap events" or promotions. Of the nearly $35,000 raised in spring 2003 by Mitsui USA for the Company's 23rd WalkAmerica, 64% (more than $22,000) was raised by employees.
