Each year, we spread a little extra holiday joy to Iowa families with little ones in the NICU by providing special ornament goodie bags, which this year will include the ornament pictured above as well as knit booties or a hat handmade by one of our very generous and talented donors. Our supporters buy the gifts for just $20 each and we deliver to Blank, MercyOne, and Stead NICUs where the gifts are distributed to as many as 180 families spending baby's first holiday season in the hospital.

Share a little holiday joy with a NICU family by selecting the number of ornament goodie bags you'd like to purchase below.

NEW THIS YEAR: MATCHING GIFTS!

WE DO THE WORK. YOU DOUBLE THE SUPPORT!
