What does $10 mean to you?
Is it two coffees for the week, one large pizza, or one pair of socks? For Miracle Babies, it is funds that will contribute to supporting a family during an unexpected hospital admission. Just $10 per week can make a huge difference to families of premature and sick newborns.
What is Mission for Miracles?
Mission for Miracles is our Regular Giving Program that helps to improve, support and enhance all lives impacted by a premature or sick birth.
Having a baby born premature or sick can be life-changing, it affects the entire family. Parents who have had a premature or sick newborn are at increased risk of developing post-natal depression and many babies can face lifelong challenges including disabilities, developmental delays and behavioural challenges. Connecting with others who have also been through a similar experience helps these families cope with the emotional and challenging journey.
Today, only around 1 in 3 families impacted have access to this vital support. With no regular government funding for our programs, we need your help.
Where does the money go?
Our comprehensive NurtureProgram consists of;
NurtureLine: 24-hour family support line with access to a trained support team.
NurtureTime: Facilitated by qualified Miracle Babies Foundation team members, these support sessions operate within Australian Neonatal units and online providing vital, comforting emotional support.
NurtureGroup: After discharge play and support groups for families and carers who have experienced the birth of a premature or sick newborn. Health professionals such as speech pathologists, physiotherapists, family support nurses, social workers and occupational therapists may also attend NurtureGroups to support families.
NurtureResources: We supply a range of resources for families with a premature or sick baby, to positively change the experience for families during what can be an emotional and traumatic time. Our resources are developed by parents themselves who have had a premature or sick baby and work toward supporting, educating and empowering families from admission, discharge, bereavement and the transition to home.
Our services and resources are FREE for families to access.
Your regular giving donation is so valuable to us.
By sacrificing just $10 a week, you are helping premature and sick newborns and their families access life changing support. If you donated $10 a week for 4 months that means we would be able to support one family throughout their hospital journey. If you choose to donate $10 a month for 6 months that means we'd be able to provide one family with a memory box.
Join our mission for miracles and make a lasting impact on families affected by prematurity or sickness.
You can choose to donate weekly, fortnightly or monthly, whichever you choose, makes a difference.
