Often preterm infants spend weeks to months in the hospital before they are ready to go home. This can be a very stressful time for parents. Many families have to travel hours to visit their little ones in specialized NICUs. Some have other children at home and travel expenses can place a heavy financial burden. Items are purchased using proceeds from fundraising to support families during their stay in the NICU and for a short time when their little one becomes an NICU graduate.
We accept donations of the following items:
Bibs
Burp cloths
Preemie and Newborn Clothing (new and gently used) - Please send only size 6 months and smaller per the request of the social workers. The greatest need is for preemie and newborn sizes.
