How can you help?
You can help The Preemie Project support critically-ill premature infants and their families. Please remember that no donation is ever too small. One yard of flannel can make several preemie blankets. One skein of baby yarn can warm several little heads and feet. Every little bit helps. Here are a few of the ways that you can help:
1. Make a Financial Contribution
