National Prematurity Awareness Day!
girlyhurley - 04:59am Aug 5, 2007 ESTProud mommy of Emily Madeleine and Sydney AnnI know it is way early, but PAD is on Nov. 13th this year (I hope I got that right!). I met with my chapter today about planning for this years event. What do your chapters do? We are looking for ideas. . . . it is new to my area.
We are planning on doing an appreciation day for NICU nurses, doctors, and RTs. We would love any input from other areas!
Thanks!

Our local chapter is not really local to us and they never seem to have events in our area. So we decided to just spread the awareness on our own this year.
I have had pink and blue lightbulbs in my outside lights since the first of the month. We have a sign in our yard stating that it is Prematurity Awareness Month. Then over the weekend my husband and I made pink and blue ribbon candy. My nieces and nephew are going to give some out at their schools. We have members of our family that have also done the pink and blue lights and the signs in their yards.

Robin~ I guess it's a given that if you're from GA that most of us are not "local" to the "local chapter".... Those candies are a great idea!! Kelly~ Our MOD office had these cute little banks that are about the size of milk cartons at school. They're pink and blue and have the MOD logo and stuff on the outside and also have a few stats on the sides. It also tells if you fill it with quarters about how much it will equal, if you fill it with dimes how much, etc. That would be an easy way for preschoolers to raise money because if other men are like my husband they empty their pockets every afternoon of change. I also keep a cup by the washing machine to catch any spare change that I might find there.
