Sharing Leah’s Warmth

Continuing with tradition, we are beginning to collect blankets to honor our first born Leah-Jean. August 16th would be Leah’s 6th birthday. This is the fourth year of collecting blankets for Sharing Leah’s Warmth. This year we are opening the collection of blankets to include money to purchase a wagon. The NICU and Pediatric unit use wagons to transport children and/or belongings around the hospital so they are able to have a little touch of fun in their days.
We will use the wagon to deliver the blankets then leave it for the unit to use. If each person who donates a blanket could give $1.00 with thier blanket we would have enough money to buy a nice wagon. But we are primarily collecting baby blankets of al sizes to deliver to the NICU. Homemade, hand-me-downs, gently used, or lovingly purchased are all welcome. Blankets will be collected on Sundays at church. The last Sunday for collection will be August 31st. Blankets can also be dropped off or mailed to our home to be included in the donation. Thank you for helping us keep Leah’s warmth a part of our lives.
