TPP would like to thank the following people and groups for supporting our organization during 2008:
Epi Staff Association/Student Council (University of Iowa): During November of 2008, this group collected food and baby care items for the families we support.
In 2008, The Preemie Project was awarded a Governor’s Volunteer Award from the State of Iowa under the “Group Award Category”. The award ceremony was postponed last summer due to the extensive flooding in the state. On October 17th Laura Aker (Founder), Andrea Knepper (Board Member), and Emily Thomas (volunteer) attended the award ceremony in Ottumwa, IA.
The ceremony included a short presentation followed by the awards. The awards were handed out by Lt. Governor, Patty Judge!!

Even though it snowed A TON, the Gift Wrap fund raiser on December 20, 2008 was still a success. We had to share the table with two other groups, but we still made $544 dollars!
Thank you to Jane Fredericks (Fundraising Committee Chair) and her many volunteers for braving the wintry Iowa weather to wrap gifts for nearly 10 hours. You were troopers!
Good morning, all! The Michigan Chapter is hoping to make a donation around Valentine’s Day, and I thought I would share my favorite hat patterns with you all. Turns out, that’s easier said than done! My “girl” pattern is so old I can’t find the link online any more, and my “boy” pattern is on the Lion Brand website and you may need to log on in order to view. That being said, I will share some links and see what happens!
