No Crib for a Bed
A donation program that invites faith communities to donate one or more pack n plays plus a baby blanket for low income families or those whose home is without a crib. Often in the EC or PICU we come across families who are sleeping together, have slept all in one bed nightly, and/or are dealing with a co-sleeping injuries or even deaths because of the lack of a crib. Many low income families sometimes have very poor equipment, if any, for their sleeping children and we are aiming to meet this need to help prevent injuries and in some cases even unnecessary deaths to precious and vulnerable infants.
