Kudos to Gift of Life Foundation's 2017 program graduates. The group of women were recognized during a ceremony at First Baptist Church on May 11. Restauranteur, motivational speaker and author Martha Hawkins, owner of Martha's Place, was the guest speaker. She encouraged the graduates to never give up on their dreams and to remember the mentoring they'd received through the Gift of Life. Each graduate received a certificate of completion by their Gift of Life nurse or social worker.

OH BABY! Gift of Life was excited to participate in Babypalooza, a premiere baby and maternity expo where expectant moms and families came to connect to community maternity resources on April 1 from 9 a.m.- 1 p.m. at the Cramton Bowl Multiplex. We had the opportunity to connect with more than 75 women and educate them to safe sleep infant practices. These expectant moms watched a one-minute education video, answered the quiz and took turns placing Gift of Life's Baby Marcus to sleep properly in his pack-n-play. Big thanks to everyone who stopped by our booth to learn more about safe sleep and how practicing it with your baby or a baby you know could save their life. Participants received a free sleep sack while supplies lasted and five lucky families won a brand new Graco Pack-N-Play!
