Snack Food Drive

If I am feeling hungry, all I have to do is go to my pantry to grab a snack. That is something that I feel we are constantly taking for granted; the convenience of having everything we need within our home. But what if you were not at home? What if, because of your child's health, you were forced to live somewhere far from home, family and every convenience that you had grown accustomed to?

Every Wednesday in the month of April I will be collecting snack foods, and other nonperishable food items, to give to families in the NICU.  These snack foods can be packs of crackers, fruit snacks, nutri-grain bars, etc. I will also be collecting items like the Cup O Noodles and other microwavable food items. Because there is a microwave on the  NICU floor, parents can heat up meals or other food items. There are no plates or bowls, so that is why items like the Cup O Noodles are the best because it requires little else.

I am striving to make each family's stay in the NICU as comfortable as it can be. Those little conveniences are so easy to take for granted and so hard to live without! If you feel lead to donate, please contact me with the contact information located on the flyer below.
