THE LEGACY OF HARRISON JOHN BROOKS:
WHILE HARRY J WAS STILL IN THE WOMB, WE PRAYED DAILY THAT GOD WOULD USE HIM IN A MIGHTY WAY. ALTHOUGH HIS PHYSICAL TIME ON EARTH WAS SHORT, WE BELIEVE HIS IMPACT WILL EXTEND BEYOND GENERATIONS.

WHILE WALKING THROUGH THIS SEASON, WE HAVE BEEN OVERWHELMED BY THE SUPPORT AND GENEROSITY OF OUR COMMUNITY. WE QUICKLY REALIZED THAT NOT EVERYONE IS FORTUNATE ENOUGH TO HAVE THE RESOURCES NEEDED TO NAVIGATE A JOURNEY LIKE OURS.

ALTHOUGH IT IS NOT WIDELY SPOKEN OF, HUNDREDS OF FAMILIES EACH YEAR FIND THEMSELVES IN SIMILAR SITUATIONS. THROUGH THE GENEROSITY OF THOSE AROUND US, WE WANTED TO CREATE A WAY TO GIVE BACK TO THE FAMILIES WHO MAY NOT OTHERWISE HAVE THE SUPPORT TO PUSH FORWARD.

OUR MISSION IS TO PROVIDE FINANCIAL, EMOTIONAL, AND SPIRITUAL SUPPORT TO FAMILIES WHO EXPERIENCE A PROLONGED NICU STAY OR LOSS OF THEIR NEWBORN.
