Currently...2/17/09

Hello all.. We are so thankful that you have joined us whether you are praying for us, supporting us, or giving to this annual drive.

In 2008 a week after Samuel passed the March for Babies took place and my cousin Angela had already signed up to walk in the marathon and was in the process of raising money long before we lost Samuel. So between family and friends we raised a little over $1,000. We are in the process here in 2009 collecting Preemie clothing to give to the NICU that Samuel was in for 9 days till he decided he could not fight no more and went to be with Jesus.

I (mommy) has done some research on what has worked for other moms that has had their babies in the NICU and we have prayed about what we want to continue to do.. Our due date for a current clothing gathering is April 4th. Samuel was born on April 10th. In memory of Samuel we will be delivering the clothing each year around this time. We have already accumilated about 70 outfits and we have more coming this way and I am still contacting local and distant folks via email to help donate.

The following is what would be beneficial to you NICU, babies, and families:

Preemie Clothing( Micro-Preemie- Preemie)
Newborn Clothing
0-3 month Clothing
Mittens
Hats
Baby Blankets
Stationary
Journals( for the parents to keep track of their babies stay and growth)
Gas Cards

As we drop off these current items of Clothing. We will be taking this list of items to see if the Nurses or Doctors know what we could add to it..

We thank you for koining us in this Effort.

May God Bless YOU!!
