The Little Giraffe Foundation was started in March 2011 to fund neonatal research and support patients and families of the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU). To date over 10,000 donations have been made to hospitals across the midwest in the way of holiday gifts, including books, toys, clothing, as well as small gifts for parents. When your child is fighting for his or her life in an incubator, a book or toy can remind you that there's hope for tomorrow and that someone is thinking of you.The foundation has also funded a number critical medical research programs to improve long term quality of life for premature babies.Every year, more than half a million babies (1 in 8) are born too soon in the United States and that rate has risen by 36 percent over the last 25 years. That's serious cause for concern. Babies born just a few weeks early are at risk of severe health problems and lifelong disabilities. Premature birth is the number 1 killer of newborns.
