You are warmly invited to YSN’s Yale Day of Service Newborns in Need project on Saturday, May 11th.
Help us collect baby items and join us for Newborns in Need, YSN’s Yale Day of Service project. We will pack supply bags for new mothers who are very much in need of material support at the Hospital of St. Raphael, YNHH Newborn ICU, or the Pediatric Primary Care Clinic.
We have a great collaboration with our partner agencies: Yale Child Study Center, The Yale Department of Pediatrics, Yale Women-CT, Yale Latino Networking Group, Greenwich Yale Club, and Working Women at Yale to assist us with our project.
Check out a video of last year’s festivities here: https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=2378338779061853.
Purchase items through our Yale Newborns in Need baby registry and designate Yale University as your charity (EIN #06-0646973) through Amazon Smile to give to YSN’s annual fund. You can also mail items to:
Charlyn Paradis
c/o Yale School of Nursing
300 Heffernan Drive, Building 400
West Haven, CT 06516
The wish list of items includes: preemie, newborn, and 0-3 and 3-6 month-sized onesies, socks, baby hats, gender-neutral board books, receiving blankets, burp cloths, and small bottles of liquid baby wash.
Consider a baby or book shower with Yale friends in your own community. Then send your items by May 1st. Contact christahartch@me.com for more information.
