“We cannot say enough about Just Heart Foundation. You helped us out more than we could ever imagine. This is our second time having a premature baby with a stay in the NICU. The first time was two years ago when our daughter, Lennon, was born at 30 weeks, weighing 2 lbs.,12 oz. It was a challenging and emotional process. No one expects their birth plan to go this way, and when our second child, Olsen, was born at 31 weeks, 2 lbs., 8 oz., we knew we had another long NICU stay ahead.

We heard about Just Heart Foundation through our NICU social worker. The sign-up process was so easy and you contacted us immediately. We are not ones to ask for handouts, and we were so very grateful for the help provided. Three months of mortgage and utilities payments made it possible for me to stay out of work longer to care for both of my children without the stress and worry of money. Olsen spent 62 days in the NICU. At four months old, he weighs almost 10 pounds and smiling is his favorite thing. This foundation means so much to us, and we plan on giving back as soon as we can so other families in difficult situations can experience the love and support this foundation is made of. “
