The Parent Connection
NOTE: We currently support the largest hospital in Iowa. The needs of this hospital are so great that we are unable to support an additional hospital at this time. With the help of national and local volunteers, we hope to expand to hospitals across Iowa, but we need your support!!
WHY DO WE NEED SO MUCH SUPPORT?
The UIHC NICU alone cares for approximately 800 premature and critically ill infants a year. WOW! These infants come from all over the state of Iowa and beyond.
DONATION GOALS
With the help of our hospital contacts we've set goals for each of our bi-monthly donations to the UIHC. We try to meet these goals for each bi-monthly donation to the NICU. Once a donation is made the tally for each item starts over.
| Hat and Bootie Sets: 1-3lb 20-35 sets 3-5lb 50-75 sets 6-8lb 50-75 sets 9-11b 24 sets |
Blankets: Small (25" to 30" square): 50-75 Large & XL (30" to 36"): 100-150 |
SPECIAL HOLIDAY DONATIONS
Holidays can often be the toughest times to have a loved one ill and in the hospital. It can be especially difficult when that loved one is an innocent infant.
We strive to bring extra comfort to families on holidays. We send comfort in the form of special "holiday theme" hat and bootie sets and blankets. These special donations are made independently from the regular bi-monthly donations to the UIHC.
