Lucy Love Project

In honor of what would be our daughter Lucy's first birthday on July 19th (one month from today!), we are hosting a fundraiser that will provide blankets to babies in the Neonatal Intensive Care Nursery where Lucy spent most of her short life.

The blanket that we brought home from the hospital is dear to us. We are thankful to have it to hold on to --- not only as a precious memento, but also as a reminder of our time with Lucy. We have specific memories that are tied to our daughter when we see and touch this blanket. Recently I asked one of the coordinators at the Levine Children's Hospital what they were in need of and she said "if you showed up with 200 blankets we would be so very thankful." Since they ideally want new blankets, that is what we intend to provide - soft, new blankets for the babies and their families. You just never know how much something very simple can change someone's life.

If you'd like to support us in our mission, please visit our fundraiser page by clicking below to go to our chip in site:

(update: i believe you need flash to view & donate)

Any amount you may be able to contribute is greatly appreciated, but simply $5 will buy one blanket. (In other words, we are not really asking for large single donations, just a lot of little $5 gifts!)

For the first 200 blankets donated, our family will be giving $1 per blanket.

We will wrap up donations on July 5th so that we may place our order in time to have the blankets by Lucy's birthday on July 19th. We are planning to deliver the blankets that week. Feel free to pass this along to friends or family.

The "Lucy Love Project" blankets will be donated
in memory of our little girl
