Bringing a Bit of Comfort Home

Babies in Bronson Children's Hospital's Neonatal Intensive Care Unit often have to spend weeks, months or even up to a year before they are ready to go home. That makes it very challenging for families. Our Children's Hospital Fund supports the NICU heartbeat bear program to provide a little comfort to families. Bronson's music therapist makes a recording of the baby's heartbeat and puts it into one of these soft animals selected by the family. This gives families something to hold on to and cuddle with when they can't be at the baby's bedside. We are thankful to the VanDam Family and the Kevin VanDam Foundation for their recent gift in support of this and other NICU programs!

Good Neighbor Campaign Results

A huge thank you to everyone who made a gift to our annual Good Neighbor Campaign. We raised an incredible $267,105 and the number continues to grow. The funds will support programs and services at Bronson Children's Hospital, Patient Assistance Fund and much more. We are so grateful for your generosity!
