About Help a tiny baby in a big way today
Everything is small when it comes to the micro-preemies in Community Health System's neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) — but your impact is not.
Nutrition is essential for the babies in the NICU. To get preemie babies the nutrients they need, Dr. Anand Rajani, Vice President and Chief Medical Officer for Community Health Partners and Community Care Health, uses a special fortifier derived from human breast milk. “This nutrition is critical. If a baby doesn’t grow well, their development will almost certainly be hampered,” says Dr. Rajani.
Your donation will provide fortifier for babies in need of nutrients to help them grow. You can help babies survive and thrive.
