It is that time of year again, and my charity project is in full swing, and this is an opportunity to help - for those of you who feel like you want to do something nice for the holidays but don't know what.
http://preemiepresents.blogspot.commy littlest one, Henry, was born prematurely due to me developing HELLP syndrome, and he spent 3 precarious weeks in the hospital afterwards. every holiday season since then I've delivered gifts to the hospital to give to thsoe parents stuck in that horrible place during a time which *should* be joyous. They *should* be showing off their new babies, or still be happily pregnant, but are instead inside a NICU with an aching heart and body.
I'm working with other etsy sellers to give them handmade blankets & candles, and calling on my friends to donate other items. I use thank you cards, coffee, chocolates, preemie clothes, candles, and other things inside each bag - and this year I want to make 40.
If you want to donate money, I have a partnership with an online retailer who will give me a steep discount on sales. If you want to donate anything else, please do. If you just want to spread the word, that is made out of awesome sauce as well.
Again:
http://preemiepresents.blogspot.comThe gifts get donated a few days before Thanksgiving, which is only 6 or 7 weeks away. The rest of the donated goods go to the hospital at Christmas time for the nurses to distribute as needed to families who need the most assistance.
Thanks for looking, respond here or PM me if you want any more details.
