We are excited to announce that we have teamed with Plano Presby to support their current NICU and Antepartum moms for Mother's Day. In order to do this we are going to need some help!
If you are interested in helping, here is how it works!
1. Message or email us and let us know you want to adopt a mom! You will fall into one of 3 categories depending on when you contact us. You will be apart of the group that receives forms from the 4/27 deadline, or in the group that receives the 5/6 deadline or the group that is collecting gifts for the moms that come in after the 5/6 deadline. See below for more info. You are able to adopt more than one mom!
2. Once forms come in (4/27) we will assign out adopted moms. The second round will be sent out the week of Mother's Day. This will be for later admits. We will also be collecting gifts for moms who come in after our 5/6 deadline.
3. Once you receive the form with your adopted mom's favorite things you can go shopping for her. Like the Angel Tree.
4. Wait for notification of the date, time and location to turn in your gift.
5. Gifts will be given to the moms on Mother's Day.
We are looking for graduate moms (any hospital), grandmothers, friends or family who prematurity and/or high risk pregnancy has affected. Once we have our graduate mom list we will start to assign current moms. The current NICU or Antepartum moms will fill out a form, listing all of their "favorites". We are asking graduate moms to purchase a gift or items their adopted mom has requested. There are some rules we will need to follow. If you have any questions, comments or concerns please let us know!
Event Rules:
1. All gifts/items submitted will be reviewed before given to the moms. Please do not wrap anything in gift wrap. Items in a basket or store bought gift baskets are accepted.
2. Please do not provide any homemade baked goods, food or drinks. All food and drink items need to be store bought and properly sealed.
3. Please refrain from providing religious material. Due to the lack of personal information about the moms we are supporting (due to HIPPA) we are requesting that no religious material be given out.
4. Please refrain from giving your personal information in any letters or cards. You are welcome to write your mom a note of support but please do not provide your personal information.
5. Items/gifts will be collected at a time and date that is to be determined. Once you have committed to adopting a mom please fulfill that commitment or notify us asap if you are no longer able to help.
6. There is no price minimum or maximum on this event. Please spend what you are comfortable spending. A little gift and a large gift are equally appreciated!
If you wish to contribute in another way, we are accepting donations through our PayPal account. All donations received between now and Mother's Day will be used for this event. Please click on the Donate button below.
