Brettyn's Lullabye - family2family is a non profit organization geared to help families of premature babies in the IMCN (INCU) unit at Women's Hospital.

Deadline to donate is December 19 so the items can be gift wrapped before Christmas.
To donate phone 1-204-880-9995 or Email  

Unused still in package:
Rattles, Books, Hand toys
Onesies and outfits - preemie to size 3 months
Brush and comb set
All items must be new as they will be used as gifts for the babies.

Used items that are accepted to donate to the unit (have to be clean):
Breastfeeding pillows and Infant bath tubs
Preemie to size 3 month clothing, knitted hats and mittens

The nurses and doctors that took care my son were AMAZING and I can never thank them enough but I can PAY IT FORWARD. The clothes that our children wear in the hospital are donated and not many people donate to these units. My goal is to get little packages made up for these families just to make it a little bit easier.
If you have any gently used blankets, clothing or anything that was mentioned above, I ask you to please consider donating to family2family.
