What an exciting week it has been for us! We made our first donation to Highland Hospital on Thursday, September 29th. Hopefully you caught us on the news that evening, but in case you didn't, here are links to the stories:
Channel 13 (WHAM) also featured us as their "Bright Spot" that evening, but the feature is not posted on their website.
In addition, we attended the March of Dimes Nurse of the Year Awards Gala on Saturday, October 1st. We had a table set up with our materials and were able to make connections with a number of people in attendance.
From these two events, we have seen a lot more activity on our website and have received contact from a number of people interested in getting involved. We are so excited about this progress and look forward to sharing more soon!
We are gearing up now for our first donation to Strong Memorial Hospital (also known as University of Rochester Medical Center). We will post more information about this donation soon.

Today
we will be making our first donation to Highland Hospital. We will be
providing hats, blankets, and completed Angel Baby Kits. We are very
proud of what we accomplished in the past 3 months with collecting
donations. Thank you to our donors and supporters for making our first
donation happen more quickly than we had hoped for!
We
also have completed pamphlets, so please contact us via email or our
phone number if you would like to have some to display or handout.

We
are still gathering items for our first donation. We are getting very
close. Here is a list of the items that we currently have none of:
- Cameras
- Forget-me-not seeds
- Baptism/Burial gowns
- Poetry book on loss
We also have only a couple of burial wraps and only a few knitted or crocheted blankets.
Thank you to everyone who has donated. We will be posting the names of
all of our donors soon to give a proper thanks. We will continue to
collect anything listed on our donations page that you would like to
donate. If you have any questions, please contact us. Thank you again
for all your support!

We are planning to make our first donation to Highland Hospital in early
August. So far we have received a number of hats and blankets. We have
some quilts on the way. Some bears for the Angel Baby Kits have also
been purchased. We can still use more of everything. If you are
interested in donating, please let us know, or just send us something -
we will be happy to receive it! We will post specific requests for items
as our needs become apparent. Thank you for your support!
