Our First Donation for Danbury Hospital! Thank You Betsy Beasley!

We would like to send a HUGE THANK YOU out to 

Betsy Beasley of Glen Allen, VA

for sending in the most amazing batch of donations!

Betsy, who has already been so generous to donate to us in the past, has blessed us again with a batch of preemie outfits. Knowing how difficult this size is to come by, Betsy makes a habit of purchasing preemie outfits when she sees them, and donating them to area NICUs. We are so lucky that she has chosen Doing Good In Her Name again to be the recipient of these outfits, and they are going to go to such great use at Danbury Hospital's NICU.

Just check out this wonderful batch of goodies that she sent! We especially loved the holiday themed outfits!

THANK YOU SO MUCH BETSY!

Our First Thank You Note!

Hello Binder Family,

My name is Nicole, and I wanted to thank you for the lovely hat my daughter is wearing on behalf of your foundation. We spent most of December and early January on the 8th floor, as she has had fevers and pneumonia.

Chandler is 3 and was diagnosed with ALL 2 weeks after her third birthday, this past September.

Peyton Elizabeth is a beautiful name for an angel. My thoughts and prayers are with you, as you continue to find the strength to help others in your daughter's name.

We hope to be able to donate to your foundation in the future, so that we too can help other families as we have been helped.

Best,

Nicole

FIRST DROP OFF A HUGE SUCCESS!

We had our first drop off last Sunday with Mary, the amazing social worker that we worked with at CCMC. Mary was kind enough to meet us on Sunday evening to pick up the donations that had been collected so far. Unfortunately on Sunday it was only 16 degrees outside! Brrrr! What's that they say... "Neither rain, nor snow, nor hail, will keep us from our appointed rounds." :)  You can see the snow in the pictures here!

Mary was a true angel to us when we were in the hospital with Peyton, and it felt so good to meet up with her to pay that kindness forward to other families with critically ill babies.

While I manned the camera, Dru and Mary posed by some of the goodies. There was enough to fill the entire trunk, backseat, and front seat of her car! I hope she had help carrying it all in.

Mary was really excited to see all that had been collected, and we look forward to seeing her for the next drop off!

Thank you so much to all those who made this first drop off possible. Your generosity in both helping to honor Peyton's memory, and assist these other little warriors and their families, has been awe inspiring.

We look forward to watching this initiative grow, and to sharing the news of more drop offs in the future.

Today I went to the Post Office and picked up FOUR HUGE BOXES OF GOODIES! Be sure to check back in the next few days to see what we found inside of them. With these boxes, we are already off to a great start towards stocking up for our next drop off to CCMC. For that drop off though, we will aim for a much warmer day!
