Navigation Issues

Have you noticed a difference in the site in the past few weeks? We certainly hope so, as we are working hard to make The Preemie Project's website better every day. But, you know the saying "two steps forward, one step back?" There are some issues with the site navigation in some older versions of Internet Explorer. When you move your cursor over links at the top called "Chapter's & Divisions, Volunteer, & Media" a little box with additional information should drop down. In versions of Internet Explorer lower than the current version, 7.0, this is not working. Rest assured, we are working hard to correct this problem.

In the meantime, please look at the site map or follow the links at the bottom of the page and update your browser to the most current version. I like Firefox.

New Blanket Size Requirements.

The Preemie Project will no longer donate blankets smaller than 25inx25in.  The nurses have requested that the blankets be larger than those we have donated in the past.

New Blanket Size Requirements:
Small: 25in x 25in
Medium: 28-30 inches square
Large: 38-50 inches square or larger.
