Description

We are grateful to everyone who has helped us be there for the families we serve. We are looking at ways to thoughtfully adapt our delivery of programs and care. The families we serve face critical illness and many have compromised immune systems. In speaking with medical professionals and social workers, the families need the services we provide now more than ever, and we are dedicated to ensuring they are not alone on their journey. Shop and shower with gifts a newborn leaving the hospital for the first time.  Create gift bags that are gender neutral, for a boy or for a girl.  We welcome as many as you wish to make. Thank you!
