Dominic's Donation Project: Pages for Preemies: October 2008

Our Mission

Our mission is simple. I would like to provide each and every parent of a NICU baby with a completed scrapbook page. So many parents with children in NICU don’t get to touch, hold, kiss or sadly, bring their baby home; a pre-made scrapbook page allowing them to slip a picture of their precious little one is perfect. Parents can hang it on their baby’s crib/incubator and eventually take it home with them to place in a scrapbook or frame.

Please CONTACT ME (click on the contact me button on the side bar) if you are interested in donating a premade page or any items that we can use to make more pages. We will glady use any items, cards, prayer cards or page protectors that you can spare! Contact me if you have any questions. Thank you so much!

All pages and cards are being donated to the Good Sam hospital NICU in Cincinnati, OH.

Did you give birth to a Preemie?

If so, you will want to check out this board I found. It's for Moms of preemies who also scrapbook. You have to post your completed scrapbook page of your preemie...and you'll get a lot of support from other preemie mom's. Check em out!

The group moderator, Sara, is hosting a (non) swap to collect 100 pages for Pages for Preemies! What a wonderful thing she is doing for us!

M Jennings & Pages for Preemies

Melissa, from M Jennings Designs has designed this very special bracelet for Pages for Preemies. She will be selling this for $35 and $5 of all proceeds go to Pages for Preemies!!! She will be selling these at the Scrap and Stamp Clubhouse on Bridgetown during the open scap for Pages for Preemies they are hosting on October 12th.

I copied this straight from Melissa's blog on why she chose each charm for this darling bracelet:

I chose the three charms for specific reasons in this design.

I chose the "I love to scrap" charm because the women who are creating these pages love scrap booking and they are creating pages for the parents of preemies.
I chose the heart charm because of the love behind this special project.
I chose the rose charm as a symbol of strength. Each baby and family member with a baby in the NICU needs strength.
