Preemie Pals
We aim to provide care and support to families that are experiencing a medical crisis.
About
Our project seeks to comfort and uplift families facing a serious crisis with their child with the donation of a free quilt. On a practical level the quilts help darken the isolette and muffle the sounds of the NICU unit. It is often shared with us that the quilts lift the spirits of the family with their cheerful colors and fun themes. Many of the Preemie volunteers have experienced having a child in the NICU and understand the stresses the families are going through
